Re: Marriott Vacation Club point system (by Steve F.):

No, a timeshare is a home away from home to me, with activities and fun. A hotel is a boring drab place to sleep, generally noisier, cramped, inconvenient, and to escape from and nothing more. But to each his own, there is no right answer for all. I know many people who like hotels, and many that do not. Even the 8 out of 9 rated Marriott Melbourne was nowhere near as nice as the exchanged into shares in Western Australia, for me.

I thought some credit cards even have travel insurance? I'll have to look at mine....i'd swear at least one card had it, though, will have to read what it covers specifically.
