I certainly wouldn't be without it either though I don't always use it because it slows the system down but there are several circumstances when I do.
Any time I use a public Wifi system such as an airport, Maccas or a caravan park etc I turn it on without fail.
I also use it to overcome geolocation , ie sites like the BBC which won't allow you to watch their on line videos if you re not in the UK.
Using services like Gmail when travelling overseas using VPN stops the provider banning you, I just use an outlet in Australia.
There are also sites which are banned in Australia which you can access from overseas, I am not talking criminal activities here, which VPN allow you to access.
It is worth the $50 a year even though I might use it only a few times a week.
