Want To Be A Millionaire? Be It... It Is Easy

Time flies.

It was not long ago that AR got its first millionaire (in AR points), and now we already have 20 members with more than 1,000,000 points. And the Olympus is going to be even more crowded in few months as there are 16 members with over 900,000 points, who are tirelessly climbing the steep slopes of AR Olympus.

Like in general economy, there are some signs of inflation, brought by incessant shower of challenges points, and by valuing logging in same as 4 bona fide comments.

But this is not the general economy, and those 20 are not going to be taxed more, and will not have to buy a anti fail medical insurance starting in 2014 (LOL)

Keep climbing, guys. It is still fun.

Yes, you are almost there...I hope they at least give you a T-shirt.  I would love a T-shirt.  I'm only halfway there.

Oh, and LOL about all the pts for the contests.  You're right, there are a lot and it does make it easier to climb the ranks...but still those who started earlier have a distinct advantage in time...I guess it's kind of a microcosm of the real estate market - if you started earlier, you have more experience (or points).

Also, points (as you allude to) does not always translate to quality.  There are some great ones at the top (and some not so great) and same with the up and comers.

Too bad we can't get paid by points Jon.  Then we could be true millionaires!

Yeah! I got you to admit that it is still fun, intermittently, of course. Sounds like a victory of sorts.

Beenn here since July of 06 featured 3 times and at 500k I suck but I get 5% of my business as  a direct result of A/R and another 10 could point back I think. Our numbers will be in on thw 10th so I am going off last years and figuring in my head.

That's a lot of blogging.  I am still a "newbie", but enjoying every minute.  I cannot now wrap my head around 1,000,000 points.

Jon - I have a ways to go. LOL! I'm happy for those who have worked so hard to achieve such success!

It would be interesting to take a look each quarter to see if the list has changed. Will Todd ever catch up to Russel Ray???

I want to get to 500,000 as quickly as possible so that the boss doesn't have to pay for my membership anymore.
