I'm less interested in total miles then in status miles...annual and/or lifetime.

But I'm totally shocked that folks sit on so many miles! What's wrong with you!?!?? Get out there and live life. GO! GET! You cant take those miles with you, you know...

I earn maybe a little over a half a million points/miles per year, but rarely have over 350,000 MP miles or 100,000 HH miles at any given time. Too many places to go, people to see, upgrades to get, free travel to give to friends/family etc.

I know some folks squirrel away points/miles for retirement, but shesh!!!

After all, as the old saw goes, she who dies with the most miles is...dead...

Don't bother knockin' on my door
I got a lion in my pocket
And baby, he's ready to roar
