That would be Westin and Sheraton. This also points out one of the perils of "lifetime" status. But five years? That's way too easy. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

Details? (Without them, the post is not so helpful.)

Of course the Hilton and Starwood "life" membership for timeshare or condo ownerwhip is good only as long as one continues to hold that "investment." Likewise holding the Hilton Amex credit card -- a program that is not guaranteed to run in perpetuity, but which I hold anyway.
