I played around with the idea of getting a Permanent Account that LJ is currently offering but have decided against it for now. $150 isn't too much at the moment but I don't think it's worth it for me at present. OK, it's an 'account for life' which is good as I'd start saving money in about 5 years time (if I'm still using this) but I really don't think I'll ever have need for 100 User Pics. If I ever want to go above my 15 I can just pay the extra $10/year to bump it to 50.

That said, congrats to those of my friends who have taken up this rare offer. I may kick myself but then again if I'm around in a few years when the offer comes up again (if it does) I might join you guys then!
