According to Art Linkletter "I can tell you there is a dynamic organization focused completely on excellence and making good things happen for our families in America. This group focuses on recovering the powerful principles that informed and animated America’s Founders. USA Next is the group.
"USA Next is a national leader that stands out from the crowd. George Will, the nationally syndicated columnist, and the National Journal wrote about USA as the top of “the six most successful” citizen action organizations in America. Think of that! Out of the innumerable groups begging for your attention, USA Next was at the top of the most successful! Isn’t that the kind of organization in which you want to make careful “investments” of your time, your talents, and your treasure? That’s one reason I love being associated with this outstanding group and serve as the National Chairman of USA Next.
"I would like you to be a part of USA Next with me."
USA Next offers as many discount programs as AARP, and at prices that in some cases even beat the savings offered by AARP. USA Next offers savings of up to 70% on hotel rooms, savings on rental cars, airline tickets, and cruises. They have discount programs for buying cars, both new and used. USA Next offers savings on long distance, flowers and gifts, and even has their own conservative book club.
When it comes to health care, USA Next features up to 50% savings on prescription drugs at participating pharmacies, or you can call their toll free number and have your prescriptions delivered right to your door. They have programs that will save you money on long term care insurance, vitamins and nutritional supplements, dental services, eye care, hearing devices, and even a plan providing a group rate for Medicare supplemental insurance.
When it comes to your finances, USA Next brings you savings on auto, homeowners, life & health insurance, planning & investment advice from Jonathan Pond, and great rates on your savings, CDs, & IRAs. They can help you find the best deal on legal services, as well as protecting your credit rating.
So how much does all this cost? Basic membership is just $12.50/year. And membership to USA Next is not restricted. Anyone of any age is eligible to join, and membership is nearly instant if you sign up online. Their website is usanext.org. You might want to simply compare them to AARP and see which suits you better.
Thanks so much. I've seen Art Linkletter promoting usa next.org on Fox, but just needed your "nudge" to start emailing people about it.

So would you say that USA Next is a "conservative" alternative to AARP?
