Golds are permitted 20 guestings, I think. Spouses are not counted against the guestings. Golds may only use the lounge if they are flying with EL AL, but PLs may use the lounge whoever they are flying with.
Indeed, you could take in 40 guests on one day and none for the rest of your year, although they may not permit so many guests at once as the lounge would be too full.
I like the idea, as I don't usually have any guests when I travel, but when I do want to take in guests there are more than one of them ... 40 in a year is more than enough for me.
