2025 Pro Membership: Is the Cost Worth It?

Date:


As we head into 2025, it’s clear that getting the most value comes with a catch—you’ll need a pro membership to compete. While the benefits may offer some additional perks, it raises a larger question: when is enough truly enough? Prices and requirements seem to climb higher each year, leaving many to wonder if this upward trend is sustainable or even fair. At some point, we have to ask ourselves if the cost of staying competitive is worth it—or if it’s time to push back we have seen it go from $35, $50, $75, $85 & now $95?
