Am I missing something here? I've never been able to figure out why I would pay thousands for a timeshare,whether it be a 1/52nd share of some apartment somewhere, or a promisary week of a holiday, usually where someone else chooses for me. Then boy oh boy they allow me to pay them hundreds of pounds every year for the rest of my and my childrens life, for maintainence, If I don't pay, they take it back without giving me my thousands back.
Wake up for Pete's sake, you can rent these same apartments anywhere and any time you like for less than the "owners" are paying for maintainence.
If you own timeshare, all you own is the right to give someone else, much richer than you, hundreds of pounds every year for nothing, don't kid yourself you own a building or anything else.
