However, membership is limited to those living, working, or worshipping in our county.

We are wanting to get our feet wet on the investment side, thus the BP membership.

Then go for the "nearly free": books in the BP library, maybe a pro membership so you can dig through the webinar archives and get unlimited use of the calculators.At the same time, find a few meetups in your area.

Hello David,Michael would like to extend your membership 6 months on him.

We are exploring partnering with third-party vendors to add more value to our Pro memberships.

I have a pro membership not because I need access to the freebies they give for that I never use their forms or calculator or really use the market place..

You dont need a pro membership, just network with other individuals who are doing the things that are mentioned above.

Okay, several.....And, Allen, I thought everyone on BP was in the "in crowd" membership status is another ego trip that is sold, (there are advertising advantages with Pro membership) but there is no reason to set yourself on the "outside" unless that is where you want to be. 

PS: I'm thinking about getting a membership to The Shop Club down the street.

@Terry Dolson it’s a membership based group, they have one meeting that’s open to anyone on the first Thursday of the month, and another meeting the third Thursday of the month that’s just for members.
