75% of the resort's original proice is still too much money to pay for a timeshare! Don't buy from the resort! Buy resale and save as much as 60%, typically. Of course this depends on location.\n\nThere's a thriving timeshare market online. Use a search engine!\n\nMy favorite company is Sellmytimesharenow, but I'll leave that to your discretion. Just make damn sure that the resale company has a clean BBB record.

Would you be renting them yourself?, or just selling them to people?\n\nI would think that you would need building permits ect. and even heating/plumbing/and electric too..thats added cost.\n\nBut if the property was in a popular travel destination, and the view was good, people might stay in em.\n\nCall some lodges/camping grounds, and see if they are looking to expand?

Davos is a pretty good resort, linked reasonably well with Klosters.  It's got a far range of skiing/boarding available so would suit pretty much any ability.  There can be some really good powder too!  A couple of things I'd say though - 1) The linking between runs is not fantastic - you may find yourself taking your foot out of the binding and pushing far more than you'd like. 2) It's very expensive for eating/drinking out/

The major casinos want the best of the best.  I would sugest you get experiance in a smaller operation and prove yourself make contacts and then try for the big time.  It takes an effort and time but well worth it in the end.  Good luck.\n\nIn Liberty,\nEric H. Smith\nwww.erichsmith.com

The first thing you need to do is to check the legality of hosting a porn site in your state.\n\nNext, get your business license.\n\nYou will need a business plan. Check with the SBA (Small Business Association) web site for templates and examples. You can also search Yahoo! or Google.  This is very important. It will force you to look at all aspects of your business.\n\nYou will need a web designer.  Make sure you get a shopping cart on your site and that you can take multiple payment types, such as credit cards and Pay-Pal. \n\nNow the meat of your business (pun intended!) I'm hoping you know how to do this already; photography, models, locations,  etc.  Do you have the equipment? (No pun intended there!) If you need a photographer or travel agent, please contact me! \n\nAdvertising.  You have a specific market already which is excellent!  Do you know how to target them? \n\nGood luck with your venture!  I've thought of doing this or other sex related businesses, not so much because of the sex, but because the money is there!  I wish you the best, have fun!

Good idea\nI would say, collect good information and divide into many groups according to different tourist attractions (safari, nature, walks, beaches, snow, sports, religios etc). YOu can either make the site on Microsoft frontpage and launch it or got to geocities in yahoo and get a free website (although with few restrictions).\nThat is all I have to say with a generalised question like this.\nCheers\nAndy
