Weird. I think of AARP as a political lobbying group - a strange requirement for a phone discount for AT&T. I guess they get payola from AARP?

One need not be a senior to join AARP [1], though some benefits require it. It's not that different from other membership schemes in practice, which is a fairly common business model for special interest groups.

40ish, AARP member. Saves a substantial amount on hotels, for example, better benefits than my Amex Platinum care in that regard.
