Another way ALPA makes money off of us. If you are young it is a good idea that will give you money on top of DPMA. I did the lump sum thing, jst in case I lost my license I could go back to school and do something else stopped it around age 45, wish I saved it and invested it. lots of restrictions and after paying into it for so many years the payout starts to shrink when you hit a certain age.
If you do it, shop around, ALPA may not be the best product out there.
