I really want to know what house/condo baldona is staying at where he also gets free breakfast for $125/night after taxes. Think it's somewhere in Gainsville?

I've stayed at multiple places, the below is a solid choice but I've also stayed at some other chains we've got deals on through Credit Cards and other ways. This was off priceline its on International Drive right outside the gate and IMO is nicer than the All-Stars:

Springhill Suites

Includes:
FREE Cancellation until 12:00 PM on 12/12/2017 (EST)
Free Internet In Room
and Free Breakfast

per night

1 Room x 5 Nights $515.00
Taxes & Fees $64.40
Total Charges $579.40
Prices are in USD.

I don't know why you are busting my balls as someone that goes to Disney a ton, you clearly love it and don't mind the price. Good for you.

Disney has never been the "big" vacation of the year for me. I completely understand others wanting to spend and not have to worry about small things like the transportation. While you can pinch pennies at the All-Stars and they are fine, I am simply offering my opinion on why I prefer to stay off site. I really don't see the issue there, especially if you are a rewards member at a hotel chain and get a good deal.

ETA: We've never had an issue getting fastpasses either. If you set them 30 days or even 25 ahead and check in a handful of times after that to maybe get even better times you can basically get whatever you need.
