Original Comment Dear Sir/Madam<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> I am writing this for Duncan Wolthuis who has now received two (2) invitations by you to join your organization for $16.00. This I understand includes:<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> 12 Membership in AARP<br /> <br /> 12 month membership for his spouse or partner, Travel tips, home &amp; garden advice, recipes, lifestyle calculators, and more listed on the AARP website, Access to exclusive products: health insurance, dental coverage, eye care,pharmacy, Resources for health care, consumer protection, and caring for his family, Access to discounts on hotels, car rentals cruses, home security, cell phone service and more, Representation in Washington and all 50 states. Fighting age discrimination, protecting pension rights, Social Security, Medicare.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Is this correct? I ask because I am pushing 60 hard yet have never been invited to join your organization. Forgive me I digress. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> I have researched on the Internet and found that you have recently updated and improved your membership sales department. (You may want to &quot;tweak&quot; this department a bit) You are now able to reach out to more of the maturing population and increase your bottom line yet represent and save your members substantial money. Correct? This is wonderful considering the economy being what it is.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> One is not required to be 50 to join? That may explain one of my questions concerning your marketing strategy. Duncan Wolthuis is not 50. He is really not expected to reach 50 years of age. He is however interested in the mini day bag you have offered him free of charge for joining. I believe, and I speak for him here, he would enjoy knowing his snacks are secure and close by. As I stated earlier, this is the second invitation you have extended to Duncan and you now have his attention. Snacks and such are important to him. Duncan has no real income. He falls in your low income bracket. The poor thing has no knowledge of working for money. He has no idea what money is. He has spent his entire life having someone care for him and handle medical, food, clothing, and all needs for him.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> You may send him the little bag, free of course, but I do suggest you remove him from your mailing list, you see, Duncan Wolthuis is an equine. Yes equine, as in horse.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Sincerely<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> S Wolthuis (Not an equine)<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> P.S. He did receive an e-mail explaining how mail lists are made and promised to be removed from the list,(no bag for him) and the letter closed asking if he would like to donate to the tornado fund or purchase insurance.Yesterday August 26 he received yet another invitation. Should he send his own personal payment for the &quot;treat&quot; bag. He is still unable to sign up.
