BAMM

[Tiesto]

Shannon I've mentioned this before in your journal, but I'd like to bring it up again, for someone who is born in the first world country, they understand from young age that a multi-millionaire in their national currency means a ton of money, but for someone who is born in the third world country, based on the currency that they're familiar with most of their lifetime, even 5-10 millions is pretty average, it is just like a monthly paycheck, how does BAMM 2.0 affect these differences in beliefs regarding the value of currencies?

The only solution to that that I have come up with so far is to specify a currency to base the value of wealth on. The natural choice is the US Dollar, but the problem with creating a program based on a specific currency is that the values of currency change, and what might be the best choice this year might not be next year.

To get around that, it seems to me possible that I could make a program to become a billionaire, but... that concerns me because there may be people who think, "Why not go for billionaire instead?" who are not in those third world countries, who do not understand the massive undertaking it is to become a millionaire... and they would basically bite off more than they could chew in a reasonable time frame, and then I would look bad because they didn't have the self control to make themselves a millionaire before going for billionaire.

Of course I could specify that the billionaire program would only be useful if you were already a millionaire... that could work. I think I will do that. Better not to tie it to a specific currency. So, once I am done building BAMM, I'll build Become A Billionaire too.

So just to make sure I understand this correctly, for those people who are already multi-millionaire in their national currency (which could means nothing if the value of currency is weak) these people should go straight to 'Become a Multi-Billionaire' instead of 'Become a Multi-Millionaire'?
