Celebrating 10,000 and Giving Thanks             Go to Top


Within a day, we will have reached the wonderful threshold of 10,000 members. We have had wonderful growth over the last three years and I have gotten to know and met some great people through this forum. It has also helped me be a better insurance agent in many different ways.

All of this is due to you, the forum members, posters, thread starters and readers. You have all helped create a great resource for all insurance agents.

I would like to give special thanks to
Healthagent, somarco, moonlightandmargaritas,
CHUMPS FROM Oxford, GreenSky, Winter, Mr. Bill, STIBROKER, senior-advisor-Indiana, arnguy, al3, Markingriffin and joshril.

These guys are the top ten posters and thread starters.

As a way of saying thank you, I will be raffling off two $250 gift cards to any retailer of the winner's choice!
  • One gift card will be given to a random winner from the entire forum membership.
  • The other gift card will be given to the winner of a drawing consisting of these 13 prolific posters!

I have not figured out how to do the raffle yet, but I will let you know when I do.

Special thanks also to Scott, Mike, Todd, Kyle, John and James, who have all moderated to some degree or other.

Extra Special thanks to Val for all his great work under the hood.

Although we can only mention a few people here, thanks to all of you for your contributions.

10,000---- Thanks sir, can we have another?

Wait a minute. Didnt Obama say he was going to tax anyone receiving a gift card of more than $250 but everyone below that would be exempt.

Not good.

Sam, I have gained far more from this Forum than I have ever put in, so it's been one of the best investments I ever made.

Thanks for having the vision.

You missed Frank Stastny. He might not be top ten thread starter, or poster, but he sure gives top 10 advice and help.

Also in general, I have learned an awful lot from this forum, keep up the good work.

I hope Sam knows how much I appreciate everything he has done. I have learned so much more than I have shared. Met some really outstanding people, made many close friends, oh, I met Rick also , and have really enjoyed to opportunity to BS with others who do what I do.

Sam has provided this opportunity to us and been willing to continue to do so even though I'm sure there have been times he wanted to rip out his hair and say "To Hell With It".

Instead of him giving us money we should probably be sending him some just for putting up with us.

Well Scott, what do you think. Did I "suck up" enough?

(I hope you know that I really am sincere about what I said.)

Well I won't suck up. I made you Howard. (Hope someone other than Al get's that).

By the way, can I win both the random drawing the the "elite" drawing?

Also, if SAI wins I think I'll have cut my throat in protest.

That's a wonderful idea Rick! Are you going to post it on youtube?

Thanks Sam, I knew the one word posts would get me somewhere in life.

Just noticed than in SAI's 3,500 posts, there are only 9,000 words!

I suggest that he is not eligible for the gift certificate until his word count gets to 10,000 (that's NOT a challenge).

This forum is truly a great success story.

When I started doing work here at March 2007, I was only the 299-th registered user. And now in less than 2 1/2 years there are 10.000 users.

For this occasion, I'd also like to thank and congratulate Sam for having the trust and confidence in my services. There were countless hours of talk, chat,hundreds of emails and so many hours working "under the hood", only so this forum retains its premium credibility and provides a unique place for all of you. In this aspect it has truly been a remarkable experience for me too.


Last but not least, I have just been informed that in honor of forum success, Chumps' Association will hold a special draft to pick it's best members and hand them a lifetime free membership with premium access.

Before I go, here is the lucky guy who made it to become our 10.000-th member. Hopefully he becomes active, so we can hand him a special title





Congratulations to you all.
Val.

Sounds like you have rock star qualities. Sam was smart in bringing you on board otherwise we might be languishing at 500 members.
