As a timeshare owner, user, and vacation/travel lover I think it makes great sense. You can't teach ethics, but if I could change one thing about the timeshare buying process it would be the 'high pressure' and many times unethical sales tactics used by the sales people at many resorts. My wife and I have even been"chased' into the parking lot after declining to buy at a certain timeshare resort.

Now, once you've purchased a timeshare the staff is gracious and the service is usually top-notch.
