I was a member of AARP long ago. I did a lot of traveling and they had some good discounts on hotels, motels and campgrounds. Now that I’m retired and have no need for travel – besides, I have other discounts available now – I want no part of AARP.
The Discounts of AARP are deceiving. You can good deals without the AARP.
AARP financially decieves senior Citizens. AARP puts forth a Mutual Fund managed by the Scudder Fund which does not have the greatest track record. AARP benefits from using the their Logo on all of these types of financial transactions.
There is not such thing as a free lunch. The AARP is an $800 million dollar corporation that benefits the Management of this group & their political agenda. Have you ever seen any of their wealth trickle back to the Members in terms of any dividends?
