A transition to what "lifetime" means to most people might require an adjustment to prices, but it might not. I don't think refunds to those who paid for upgrades would be necessary. The change of values, from say, $2,669,194,352 on December 28, 1999 to $200,000 last week already reflects the "write-down" of goodwill that had required the search for better monetization of the Silicon Investor brand. Now at a lower level or even Bob's lower targeted level for his investment, it makes sense to me that lifetime membership mean what it means. Bob has made it clear that more usage, more presence is what drives the brand's value.
