AARP is an organization for older adults in America that can be joined for a very small fee. The purpose of the program is to talk about older adults rights and various medical, health, and end of life issues that most start to think about by the time they qualify to join this program. What are some of the advantages and disadvantages of this program?
There are some advantages. First of all, it's rather cheap at less than $15 a year in most cases. This is an advantage because there are quite a few services that you can take part in by being a member. There are hotels, flights, restaurants, car rentals, and insurance plans that you can get a discount from being a member. This means that one or two nights in a hotel each year will pay for the membership.
You also get a monthly magazine from the organization telling you what's going on in the world of older adult life. This covers subjects like medicines coming out, health check ups you need, end of life investment advice, and motivational stories from other older adults. It's worth the price since it is good information.
There are some downsides to the program. First of all, you will receive quite a bit of junk mail. When you join the organization shares your address with others. You will daily get supplement, diet, and investment related advertisements coming into your mail box. Even if you quit the organization the junk mail keeps coming in.
Some believe that the same or similar discounts can be found without being a member since there are also senior discounts. Others have found at times that the AARP discount is not always the best one available.
If you like the organization and see some benefits from it, join it. If you want to avoid the junk mail, consider doing something else.
