Short and salient

Navi Mumbai Anniversary Special in today's Hindustan Times. Notice from Nerul Gymkhana, announcing the upcoming "Increase of Life Membership Subscription from Rs 80,000 to Rs 150,000."

What, you will naturally wonder, do you get for this nearly doubled payment for a life membership?

Luckily for you, the notice answers that in one crisp sentence:
    The short and salient features of Life Membership offered are that the main applicant and his/her spouse shall be members for his/her lifetime.
Oh.
