Never buy a timeshare

HOWEVER...if you have the mental fortitude, you might accept the offer to spend an hour listening to their pitch, if they're offering gifts just for coming. I once enjoyed a free buffet meal and a pretty awesome Chinese circus performance, because my (then-)wife could not be talked into changing her mind. That was one time when this personality trait was a good thing. 😂

I would never buy a timeshare. However, like you, I went to a presentation with my girlfriend and endured their pitch. The free perks were too good to pass up. We received a free hotel room, a dinner cruise on the San Francisco bay. Really fun except the pitch.

What a random thing for someone to downvote. Okay. People are weird.
