 * Repeatedly getting the same error when trying to complete a lifetime subscription:“
   error: Subscription #XXXXX: The next_payment date must occur after the start 
   date.”
 * When looking at the checkout page, the error seems to be the result of the next
   subscription payment being set to 12/31/1969 (visible as the “First Renewal Date”).
 * I was unable to get this to work, so I used a one-time signup fee and 0 for subscription
   price instead of a lifetime subscription.
