Why does anyone who owns something that is an expense 365 days a year
but only used personally perhaps 30 days a year
rent out those unused days/weeks?
Vacation homes operate on the same principal. Buy it. Use it. Rent it out when you aren't using it.
The income covers the expense. Anything over that (if any) is a profit.
The decision on what to do with the additional income (if any) is a personal one.

Interesting .... the website has been removed
and the video has also been removed from YouTube.
Looks like someone was uncomfortable with how this message was being delivered ......

It's probably all our fault — we started making wisecracks and smart-aleck remarks.
This is why we can't have nice things.
