Big Daddy Don,
I found some creative, if not fun, ideas for making your timeshare work for you when you can not use it. These mostly apply to someone who owns a business.
A stay in the timeshare could be an employee perk. It could also be a grand prize for customers who buy the most product. The use of the timeshare could be donated to a charity for fundraising and garner some publicity for the company.
Using vacation as bait, it's possible that your investment of annual fees could actually return you thousands in company sales.
So, you don't have to just let your timeshare sit there, get creative.
What a nice wedding, anniversary, birthday, graduation and whatever gift a stay in your timeshare could be.
