Yes, the convenience of a permanent lifelong e-mail address is one of my reasons for being a life member too -- especially when added to the convenience of not having to send a check every year. But I still have about six years to go before I reach break-even on the cost. Wonder whether or not I'll make it.
Back when I was a member of the work force -- seems so long ago -- I bought life memberships in just about everything I was a member of, because I figured I'd be a lot broker after I retired. Boy, was I ever right.
