J.K.Rowling: One of the 25 people we 'envy the most'
 
Fortune Magazine has listed 25 people we 'envy the most'. J.K.Rowling is ranked as 10th with one of the reasons being her phenomenal book sales.

Quote:

As if that weren't enough: Amazon.com recently named Rowling its bestselling author of all time, beating out the Bard and Dr. Seuss.

Awesome, I know I admire her a load!
I'll have to check out the rest of the list now =P

Edit: First post :eyebrows:

Mrs Felton 10-10-2005 08:01 PM

Yeah, I'd love to be JK.

BlackRose222 10-10-2005 08:07 PM

JK Rocks!!!Who wouldnt want 2 be her.

Lissydove 10-10-2005 08:33 PM

I don't envy her so much as I admire her. Envy, to me has a conotation that you begrudge the person what she has and wants it for yourself. I think she deserves everything she's got for all her work. I would love to be like her.

katiebell 10-10-2005 08:35 PM

Agreed. I don't envy her either - I'm glad she has everything she deserves.

gryffindorquidditchgirl 10-10-2005 08:37 PM

i love her, it's so great that people want to be her, it means that they like her alot. :) she's worked hard and deserves to be on all the list ! :cheers:

Tao 10-10-2005 08:43 PM

I'm with everyone else. I don't really envy her (though who wouldn't want her millions?!) as much as I admire her. A single mother, with not a lot of money, strikes it rich... that's always something to be proud of.

Brina gurl 10-10-2005 09:20 PM

I wouldn't mind being as wealthy and as well known as her, but hey. It HAS to be hard to be her. like walking along in the streets and having no privacy (or at least very little). So, as long as she likes what she's doing, I'm glad. keep up the great job. It's not a surprise she's on the list... Loads would love it.

slythringurl04 10-10-2005 09:22 PM

i admire J.k. she's a really talented writer!

Padie 10-10-2005 09:32 PM

I don't exactly envy her. I admire her. Though I think that we do have reasons to envy her...

SkyeBloo 10-10-2005 09:36 PM

JK really does deserve to be on that list. she is determined and lets not get started on her imagination. Wouldnt it be ironic if she dreamed only in black and white?? hmm....

MadameMalfoy 10-10-2005 09:40 PM

Okay, I do envy her :lol:

prettyinpink 10-10-2005 10:18 PM

I love J.K!!! She should be envied! :)

evil punk rocker 10-10-2005 10:21 PM

yeah she does deserve to be on that list

mione_girlgwp 10-10-2005 11:21 PM

J.K is so lucky :) And she deserves it

kissin'R.G.39 10-10-2005 11:52 PM

The Only One...
 
The only person I envy is the girl who gets to snog Ron in the Half-Blood Prince movie! =P~~~~~ (drool)

SUP MANDY 10-10-2005 11:56 PM

HAHA, I agree.

Brisk 10-11-2005 12:07 AM

J.k Rocks My World, I Would Love To Be Her!!!

walawalabear 10-11-2005 12:43 AM

Wow. I find it inspiring that she outsold Shakespeare. Take that high school english teachers. In all seriousness, I envy her creativity, and I love how far in depth she takes the books.

Harmonizer 10-11-2005 12:23 PM

yeah, i so totally envy her. I love her story plots. Go Jo! You rock my socks!

mysterious 10-11-2005 02:45 PM

nice. i'd like to be like her, but not like "taking her place". she has deserved the admiration of every single hp fan and every single penny she's earned.

OdiSSe 10-11-2005 02:47 PM

If I made a list, she would definitely be on the top. But more than envy, I respect her!

bitsyandtank 10-11-2005 02:56 PM

I think she is a wonderful writer, well of course I think that. :yes: She deserves all the back patting that she can get. :bow: Keep up the good work!! :chrleadr:

HARRYPOTTERFAN!!! 10-11-2005 03:01 PM

I'm so happy for J.K. she's very talented and she DESERVES IT

Ruxanda 10-11-2005 04:22 PM

I'd like to have the same success when I grow up too....

loony 4 ........ 10-11-2005 05:42 PM

Congrats Jo!!

Alita 10-11-2005 05:56 PM

well duh, no stuff...don't you think....that everyone likes the harry potter books...well some people thinks it's to long...haha...but everyone likes some things like anyone would like...so better shut up!

Raazia 10-11-2005 06:14 PM

great....to be admired for a talent you have is a superb feeling
otherwise, the people in the list are some people i wouldn't envy....i simply pity them for having such boring jobs.....(ok ok...m not that serious...i would love to have their houses, cars, etc etc:P)

Kazters 10-11-2005 06:22 PM

I agree with you Teresa! All I think is "What would it be like to have that sort of money!" Thats it! But obviously fate has been on her side!

harry_luvr 10-11-2005 08:24 PM

L.a.m.b 10-11-2005 09:16 PM

beatboxing_chipmunk 10-11-2005 11:06 PM

Interesting list! JK deserves to be on the list!!!

Sollust 10-12-2005 01:57 AM

Kevin "Cletus" Federline and JK Rowling mentioned on the same page. Now that's just wrong.

tonks26 10-12-2005 10:52 AM

I'd love to be like her, a good writer, with a good story, and successful to boot! Not all writers could say that. Good for her! :D

xinferi 10-13-2005 02:22 AM

I think she very well deserves to be envyied.

hogsmead44035 10-13-2005 08:30 AM

Of course we envy JKR, she is just so darn talented............exscuse the spelling

hermajestysfinest 10-13-2005 02:11 PM

i think its awesome that she got bestselling author for amazon!! but beating out shakespeare? there should be some kind of gold medal in that or something. them high school english teachers are dangerous. =)
