[amsat-bb] Re: Life Membership

[Luc Leblanc]

$1.00 in 1975 had about the same buying power as $4.05 in 2009.

Annual inflation over this period was about 4.2%.

A 50$ life membership in 1975 worth 202.50$ in 2009 but the actual AMSAT-NA life membership is at 880$!!!

I don't know how this 880$ has been calculated but someone will surely come up with an explanation?
