It all depends on the promotion... sometimes, the promotion makes it worth the RDMs.

NW had a World Club Double Milage bonus, for flights up to 60 days after purchasing a membership. Combined with Elite bonuses and other program bonuses, there were stories of people getting 80k RDMs in one trip (see NW forum "most miles on one trip" thread).

I'd do this for AA, since everything applies to lifetime Gold. Hoping something like the Love Field promotion occurs next year.
