Given that 10 EUR per month translates to ~1 pizza or a few beers in most countries, it does not seem a very steep price, to be honest.
If you individually think that you cannot pay this, then there is the reduced rate -- and we will simply assume that you will be honest about whether or not you can pay the full price or not.
Is there a monthly payment option? This was unclear from looking at the web pages without actually signing up (a week or so ago...). For many of us, that would make this problem go away. I would hardly notice a monthly fee of 5-10 EUR but paying it all at once would be painful. I've been paying the FSF for my Associate Membership in this way for years now.
Hi all,
I agree with Karl's opinion that a monthly fee is 'easier' to calculate with. For me as a student I hesitated signing up due to the 'high' costs at first. If I had the option of ~5-10 EUR per month for a fellowship, I think I would have signed up already.
Then I would try to omit ~1 pizza each month. But it's harder (at least for me) to omit ~12 pizzas in one month ;-)
So maybe someone can say something about the payment methods? I'm interested in that topic, too.
kind regards, Sven
