Should I renew my CISSP? (fedia.io)

Couldn't find a poll option so I guess people can just weigh in on their thoughts here. I've been a "CISSP-holder" since 2015/2016-ish and have always had the renewal fees paid for by my employer. My renewal date has come and unfortunately I don't think I'll be getting any employer assistance paying the fee this time around. Is it worth keeping? Some important things to know...

I'm not in government work right now but it's not impossible that I would be sometime in the future.
I have TONs of other certs so maybe CISSP is redundant?
CISSP is lame right? =P
Costs about $125/yr so a 4 year renewal is like $500 </gross>

Same boat. It still looks alright on a resume, some jobs require it or similar, and taking the test is definitely a pain.
