Timeshares are easy to BUY. The problem is that people aren't properly taught how to get RID of timeshares.

One timeshare management company I'm unhappy to be acquainted with hands out a sheet titled "Our Promise." In it, they promise, among other things, "Guaranteed future vacations that can be passed on to future generations."

That's not a promise; that's a WARNING! This particular timeshare management company hits 11 on a 10 point nasty scale if you DARE ask about giving back your unneeded timeshare. And they require buyers from current owners to pony up more than two years maintenance in advance, a requirement that must have been designed to kill resales and make sure that current owners will HAVE to "pass their vacations on to future generations."

I say again: Timeshares are easy to BUY. The problem is that people aren't properly taught how to get RID of timeshares.
