hay rutgers1 , there is a dis dads club thread you can join!!! you will meet about 200 or so other married w/kid men with the same problem you have!! disneyholics!!A week ago, I posted that this board was evil, as it was encouraging me to obsess over trips that won't take place for months, even years, and that it was keeping me online at all hours of the night trying to find the best "bang for my buck" with points.
Now that I rethink it, it is YOU - all of you - that are evil, lol. Here I was, happy with my measly 210 points, excited that I was going to be vacationing in a beautiful SSR studio....Now, last night, well past my bedtime, I found myself babbling to my wife about how a 1BR is the "only way to go" and that, furthermore, "the only way to go" is to buy more points so we can at least be guaranteed a 1BR for a week every year. And then, as she built a wall between us with pillows and tried to ignore my rationalization, I concluded that "the only way to go" is to create special bank accounts where our Disney money can be squirreled away so that we can afford TWO - yes TWO - trips a year to take advantage of those AP's that we are now going to buy....the same AP's that I had no intention of buying a few weeks ago.
Evil, I tell ya. Evil!!!!!!!!!

AND it was you I thought of Sunday night as we were listening to the presentation in California..."buy where you want to stay is what DVC Mike says, maybe we need those 100 points in 2 50 point contracts at AKV. Then each DD would have a 50 point AKV contract." What was really scary was the longer my DH drank the "kool aid", the more positive he was and even agreed to meet with our guide on Monday. BUT after touring the VGC models, he didn't want the AKV add on, he wants MORE points at VGC first. THEN add on the AKV or BWV points.
DVC Mike....How many points do you have? How do you use them (how many trips, how big of a place, etc.)?
