::Future BlogShares Billionaires

Friday, January 09, 2004

On BlogShares News' Press Release made by Afonso on behalf of Mar Português:

Please don't write more posts about Portugal. Aggie and Laila are the lucky winners and will both get 200 billion. I know I said 400 billion, but after some googling I decided this was the best decision.

I have read Aggie's Macau blog, Arvind's Under The Weather, and, Berry's A Portuguese Twist and I believe we all did our best and it would be fair enough if we would divide the B$400 billion equally...

I had mixed emotions when Afonso told me that the B$400 billion is mine. But, I told him to give more time to other bloggers to blog about Portugal. Afterall, I am currently contented with the B$4 million which I am using to buy shares of newcomers' weblogs. It's nice to be an instant billionaire, especially if that happens in real life, BUT, once I received his billions it would mean ONE THING: he's leaving Blogshares! Whether it's true that he just want some time off from BlogShares, I am saddened about his early vacation plans...

Although I was surprised with Afonso's initiative, I was deeply touched with his kindness when he included in his press release about sponsorship of my BlogShares membership. It is very unfortunate that we do not have PayPal yet in the Philippines and my only chance to enjoy unlimited transactions is when BlogShares include me once they give away FREE PREMIUM MEMBERSHIPS again to selected members.

By all means, I am wishing you goodluck, Afonso...

OH! so sorry to know that! Afonso was the one who helped me with Jay get premium membership. Besides, I wrote to Jay that the Philippines currently is not a PayPal member. Why don't you try to send Jay e-mail and let him know you wish to have a premium membership as well...

Goodluck!

I am not as lucky as you are. I have 200 billion but no premium membership. :-(
