One thing to remember, unless they've cancelled it, is you can get a $285 bonus for like 25k FPPs. If you make GS every month, you can accrue enough FPPs every 3mos to get a new one. Plus you can always sell merchandise on ebay for cash. Someone on 2+2 once did a comparison between FTP rakeback and P* fpps but I don't remember the exact answer but the differences were not huge.
How many hands you think you'd play to make GS at NL25? I'd think that would be pretty tough unless you don't have a job (or a gf). Making SS at NL50 is pretty easy very doable at NL25 but for GS, I had to work at it the few months I made it and also had some NL100 and NL200 (short stacking) mixed in. I don't have a gf but do have a job, wife & kid.
