I don't know what level they are talking about. I wrangled a $5/month 'life' membership at a branch of a major chain, starting in 1984. I don't think that $60/year reaches $2800. The 'inflation calculator'[1] I use regularly uses USG numbers and it says that the equivalent to $60/year is $155/year today.

In 2010, I had $3/month at 24 Hour Fitness for life + $5/month for SuperSport.
