that's OK bywarren, he didnt answer my question about greedy tourists either.....

Cajunman, I too must admit to using the word greed in describing how a person might become victim to the timeshare lure. In reflection, that was a poor choice of a word.

“Greed>noun intense and selfish desire for food, wealth or power."

That does not accurately describe a person’s human nature to want to accept a gift that they feel is what might be better described as a windfall or sudden unexpected piece of good fortune. It is the unscrupulous salesperson that preys on that from people who are otherwise well intentioned.

I stand corrected.

I must thank you all, as this topic has been most imformative. I do appreciate the "heads up" as I will be visiting AC for the first time in October. Enough information has been presented in this topic for one to make a fair choice about any timeshare offer that may present itself. It should be required reading for anyone visiting AC.

I am sorry if I offended anyone with my previously posted "joke". It was just a joke.

I like pedro 1's response wasn't it Nixion that said," I am not a crook!".
time share has such a bad rap they have changed their name to protect the innocent 'Vacation shareing'

Loved your joke - changed the characters to lawyers and told it a couple of times already!

Nixon was a crook?

Thanks lawcucui. And you ARE an attorney!

Yeah, SlimJim - even lawyers know what's funny!

As stated in my post, "CM's"='s Captain Morgan's.
