I've done the math and with the hours I planned to work, the payments were feasible. It would leave me with enough money for a car + insurance, and food. You do mention a good point with re to paying for the flights themselves...those are goddamn expensive. I did think of ways to get around that -- my friend's dad is a pilot and can get us discounts -- but he's not very dependable.

As I've already said before, I suspected that actually implementing this would negatively affect my schooling. Mostly, I'm concerned about working nights.

I did suggest to my dad to sell it (to pay off some of his goddamn credit card balances -- which is why we're in this mess), but the market for that kinda blows today. I know we can make more off this after the economy rebounds (and I get some use out of it), which was another reason to consider taking up the payments for now. Everything considered though, and in light of what was brought up, It's not worth my education. Now that I think about it, it's kind of stupid trading the $18k I would inherit from this for the potential $100k per year I could make being a lawyer. I guess I should just stick it to my dad and tell him to deal with his debt, make him sell the timeshare short, and maybe he'll have learned a valuable lesson.

For the record, I never thought to change the quality of food my brothers and I eat, and I would have done everything I could to make sure they get fed. I agree with you in that any course otherwise would be a stupid thing to do.

I think timeshares are pretty cool if you have EXTRA cash, but who the hell has extra cash?

Definitely dude, a timeshare is not something someone who is not even into college yet should own. Also I think it's funny you're considering both buying a timeshare and entering the peace corps.


also i got rejected from the peace corps just so everybody knows.

Yeah, seems a bit much. Peace Corps should be enough.

Rejected? Why?

THAT'S WHAT I JUST THINKING

Timeshare --> RV

Hahaha.
