I've always wondered if I should consider buying a second home for weekend getaways... The thought of having a place in mountains or a getaway at the ocean has always felt like a nice idea... But then I realized I could use my timeshares to do the same... I use Worldmark in this example, but with Hilton I could also do something similar within the last 30 days by renting them out... Worldmark however, has a better rental program so I used them in this video.

I was absolutely shocked that I could use my timeshares for less money that the operating costs of a one bedroom condo. I chose the one bedroom condo so that I wouldn't have to worry about repairs and upkeep to the second property. But you should watch this video to see that you can actually use timeshares for less money. And I didn't use any of my points... I just used the rental portion of my timeshare program as a comparison.
