So if you use it for 10 years you have paid $50k to $70k for ten weeks of vacation in a condo......full kitchen, two bedroom, living room, with resort grounds.

So to wealthy people..............fifty grand, nice place to stay...........why not.

The key word is frugal. A frugal person would never buy a timeshare, unless they were the victim of a high pressure salesperson. I would never buy a timeshare.
