Any tips on the cheapest (and easiest) way to make up a couple of hundred short?

As a side question I have "Current lifetime Status credits: 6,190" am I right in guessing that there is no real benefit of aiming to get an extra 810 SC's to achieve lifetime Silver recognition? Is it the same as normal Silver, which doesn't even give you lounge access?
