Here's My Secret To Our Dream Trips & Get-Aways
People know that Vicki and I enjoy traveling to all kinds of interesting and exotic places, but they are often amazed at how little we spend compared to what most people pay.
I keep getting asked for my "little secret" here, so I thought I would share it here. Frankly, it's easier than having to explain it over and over.
OVERVIEW
You know how companies like Costco and Sam's Club negotiate superior pricing on groceries for their members? And you pay a fee to belong?
I am a member of a company called Rovia, which basically does the same thing for people who love to travel and take fun get-aways to different places.
Vicki and I don't want to spend a huge chunk of cash just to be locked into the same place every time (like time shares), so the flexibility of Rovia's co-op approach to vacations and travel is awesome.
HOW THEY DO IT
Rovia's staff are out there all the time negotiating great vacation get-aways and trips for their members .. at rates the public would NEVER have access to.
These aren't cheap trips at cheap prices. They truly are luxury or dream trips at dream prices!
By the way, over 200,000 people in 21 countries have joined since they launched in December of 2005.

There are four member services that you can take advantage of:
1) Hotel Get-Aways: 10-45% off the best ONLINE rate at thousands of quality hotels worldwide. No matter what city you go to, you can probably find a hotel for members.
2) Resort Get-Aways: Deeply discounted packages at upwards of 70 amazing resorts at 50-70% the best ONLINE price.
3) Rovia Select: 50% off the best ONLINE price at select ultra-deluxe hotels around the world (ie. Ritz). Allows you to travel in style at modest prices.
4) Dream Trips: Access to hundreds of incredibly discounted trips every year (such as classy $69 cruises, all-inclusive resorts etc). The quality is great and the prices are unbelievable!
WHAT DOES IT COST TO JOIN
It costs $199 to join plus $26.99 per month to be a member.
BUT, there is an easy referral program whereby your monthly membership will be waived, so there's really no membership cost after that.
And as far as the $199 goes, your first trip savings more than pay that back!
ABOUT THE REFERRAL PROGRAM
You must be referred by an existing member, which I would be happy to do. In fact, I get rewarded for doing so!

Almost everyone I talk to has questions, so I actually invited Mike Putman (Rovia's President) over to my office and recorded him in our studio explaining the program features.
