AARP Lifetime Membership

When I turned age 50 in 1996, I read that President Clinton also turned 50 the same month, and he bought a one-year membership in AARP.  I chuckled at the notion that he turned down the upgrade to a Lifetime AARP membership for only $59.00 and chose to pay the annual membership each year.

 

The AARP Lifetime Membership has served my wife and I well over the last 19+ years because of the additional cash-off discounts, free printed newsletter, free printed magazine, and other great topics.

 

For those who wish to upgrade their AARP annual membership to a Lifetime membership, the current amount is $200 and can only be requested by calling AARP at 800-566-0242 .  Or, perhaps you can encourage your children to sign up so they get more years out of it.

 

All my best, and be safe.

I wanted to get a lifetime, but no way I could afford it at the time.  Now I am 81 and can afford it, I look at actuarial tables and feel it's a good deal, if I live to 100.  
My current membership expires 10/23.  If I paid for 5 years would I lose the 1½ year remaining on my existing membership?

nah, you did alright. AARP considers 5 years to be a lifetime, that's how long the lifetime membership lasts.

  Lifetime Membership is still $200 for now, I'm not sure if the price goes up in January 2025 when annual membership increases.

Why would anyone pay $200 for 5 years when one year costs significantly less than 1/5 of that?

 @ThomasP298367  @b810315w It's a LIFETIME membership and NOT $200 for only 5 years.  I have had my LIFETIME membership for several years now and my membership data shows an expiration date of DEC 2800.  Check your mailings (bulletin, magazine) for the date of expiration. You do need to call AARP to update your membership data, you cannot do it online.

Other people seem to be claiming otherwise.
