The 3 Billion Club (oops, not 30 but still!)

A certain broker who shall remain anonymous (but let's just call her "Snippy" for fun) was at a local watering hole alone recently(as is her habit) and struck up a conversation with another broker (let's call him Skippy):
"Guess what?" began Snippy. "I'm in the 3 billion dollar club at my agency."
Skippy raised his eyebrows. "You mean million, right?" he asked.
"No, BILLION," snipped Snippy.
Skippy did the math quickly and realized this was impossible, especially for someone like Snippy who had only been selling real estate for 2 years or so. She would have had to sell like 1000 Three Million houses, or 100 Thirty Million houses. Either way, he knew it was bullshit, but felt sorry for Snippy alone at the bar, attempting to flirt with outrageous lies.
"Well, congratulations!" said Skippy. He's a gentleman.
