Timeshare Forum: 1 year, 1 month agoFIVE YEARS? the product that is being sold now has to change in a lot sooner time than 5 yrs. There is a mentality in the timeshare industry that can only remember the recordbreaking years and doesn’t want to face the reality of what is coming.

Having been in the TS-Frac industry for 25 years now, and for the last two years in Thailand, I have seen it all beginning to move this way. The Asian countries ARE, the next great market.
