What is the shelf life of a spool of mono line?

I've stored line for years without problems in my basement. I also have one
reel with Trilene XL on it that I use only a few times a year, and that
gives me no problems either, and I think the line has been on the spool for
at least five years. But I'm just a recreational angler, if I was a
tournament guy, I'd probably be scared to do that, even though I haven't had
problems.
