\"2013-11-15_13-55-21_436\"Today was a good day.\u00a0 I had the pleasure of having lunch and good discussion with M, E, & L; they talk about their travels on their blog: Responsive<\/a>. I met them for lunch today at the Cheesecake Factory in Virginia Beach.\u00a0 Here, they were kind enough to give the Boss-lady a sales pitch regarding full time time-sharing.\u00a0 I can tell you; she very much enjoyed the conversation, and I think it is simply a matter of time before she gives me the green light on my (eh-um…I mean our) adventure.<\/p>\n

My favorite part of the lunch was the free flow of information and the easy flowing conversation.\u00a0 M & E talked to me at length about the logistics of putting three, sometimes four people in a Prius on “moving day.” It was interesting to discuss Interval International and the Worldmark exchange systems. One of the things I learned is the importance of a detailed budget, their budget <\/a>is very detailed, and can be a good example of what to expect.\u00a0 In order to do this, the boss-lady and I definitely have to have a positive income stream and a comfortable emergency fund to take advantage of sales when they occur.<\/p>\n

We also discussed our histories, and how we came to be where we are today.\u00a0 M & E; thank you for a fantastic lunch.\u00a0 I look forward to the next time you are in the area; consider this an open invitation to our house.<\/p>\n

I learned that we still have some issues to work out:<\/p>\n
