The lifetime of the time-changed process is
By the strong law for Brownian motion, almost surely. If , the exponent is eventually at most , so the integral is finite. If , it is eventually positive and grows linearly; if , the recurrence of one-dimensional Brownian motion makes spend infinite total time in, for example, , so the integral is infinite. Consequently
