If I read your post correctly, you did a challenge to get AA Platinum, the rest was points travel and status matching. You're not really a very valuable customer to any airline from the sounds of it, but maybe I'm wrong. And with all those status matches (which you can usually do only once every five or so years), unless you actually fly those airlines (or alliances) the shiny plastic is not of any real value (and you won't retain the status for the next year). Your sense of entitlement is going to hit you very hard when the party's over!
