Being a nearly 5MM on UA, the real question to me is not how much $$ it costs you to get lifetime GS. The real question is how much of your life are you willing to endure endless suffering while flying 4MM BIS miles on UA??

United slogan should be, We are United, where dysfunction is our function.
