We were at the pool yesterday at Lakeshore and we met a family and were talking ownership, etc., told them about TUG. They went on line and were perusing and I gave some helpful tips and said more then anything how helpful everyone has been and you ask a question and so many are willing to share experiences.

I am now a legit tugger!
 
That's great! Saving others from buying expensive timeshares is a good feeling! Enjoy your vacation!

Tuggers are a special breed. I have relatives who own multiple developer weeks (all purchased from Marriott). I have urged them to join TUG to become more savvy, but I've learned that some folks just cannot be educated in that way. In spite of all my warnings, they bought Trust Points (and now have buyer's regret). Even when I give specific advice on how to reserve high-demand weeks at the 13-month mark to maximize rental potential, it is too much. They are not stupid people, but it is beyond their grasp.

Something about horses and water.

love it when owners learn (or share) about TUG in the pool on vacation at a Timeshare! Its actually one of my most enjoyable parts of vacation as well, and I usually end up with quite a crowd as folks around the pool hear whats being discussed!

its always great to share the knowledge from TUG with other owners!
