Gym Membership


They say two things in life are certain, death, and taxes. Well I have another one to chuck into the mix, gym memberships. We will all do it at one point in our lives, it could be your new year’s resolution, or to impress a member of the opposite sex.
I remember when I got my gym membership; I had found a promotion on the internet for a free trial with a particular gym. So I went in thinking. I am just here to have a look and see if I would consider becoming a member. But by the time I left I am quite sure I had been convinced to purchase shares in the place.
The people that work at the gym must be ex used car sales people or have a PhD in bullshit because they are so persuasive, in fact the guy that was dealing with me was so good that he had me convinced that if I did not join this gym I would be contributing to world hunger and terrorism.
So in conclusion gym memberships are like organised crime. Easy to get involved with, but the only way out is death.
