In that sense, someone like me would benefit. But not in the sense that its an investment of any sort. I'd buy a sheet of 20 and it would probably last 5 years for me. And for those five years, I wouldn't have to go back to the post office for a new stamp.

How could anyone consider this anything but a convenience?
I'm still working on a roll of 37-cent stamps. I bought about 18 more 2-cent stamps a couple of months ago but didn't manage to use everything up before this week. So now I'll have to double up on the 2-cents and buy a few more. I rarely use snail mail. A roll of 100 "forever" stamps would probably last me just about forever.
