So I have looked at hunting and fishing Lifetime license in Minnesota and here is what I have come up with. The prices are a little lower now but will all be going up next year. I have included the yearly price that license will be next year. This is also assuming that the yearly and lifetime prices don't go up, which I think they will. So it makes a Lifetime license an even better deal.
Deer - Archery Yearly = $30. Deer Archery Lifetime = $573. Time to recoup cost: 19.1 years
Deer - Rifle Yearly = $30. Deer Rifle Lifetime = $573. Time to recoup: 19.1 years.
Fishing Yearly = $22. Fishing Lifetime = $383. Time to recoup: 17.4 years
Since I'm 32 years old now it would take me approximately until I'm 52 years old to recoup my cost. I can't retire from my job until I'm at least 55 years old and barring any bad luck will be working in MN until then. Besides the license is still useable if I move out of state. In MN when you reach 65 years of age prices of license gets cut in 1/2, but from 55-65, a decade, I would still be paying for yearly licenses if I didn't buy the Lifetime license.
So I think the yearly licenses for Deer Archery, Deer Rifle, and Fishing are a good idea. What do you think?
