It may open up additional income for what would otherwise simply be standard free members. If even 5 people a month were to utilize it, say that's an extra $50 you otherwise wouldn't have; considering the expenses of $500 a month, that's an additional 10% of the expenses per month, on top of other income. I predict 5 a month to be a low estimate.

(you decide these ones, I don't know)

Allowed into Advanced Security section

It's a taste of what a true upgraded account could be like, and for those who don't have a lot of money, but still want some kind of upgraded account, 9.99 isn't too hard to come by.
