Doesn't that rule out interest income?

Wow, they're strict in Malaysia.
In the US all you need are serial numbers, and a credit card.

Well spotted ;D. I assume plenty of pros also have other sidelines especially if their paid photography work is somewhat seasonal or they are involved in a family business as well for example.
As an amateur I'll never be eligible even though after a quick add up on that list I'd be at 43 points. Personally I can't see why it can't be something like "Canon Premium Service" and you spend the cash with Canon and you get the benefits. When I book an airline flight they don't ask me if it's business or pleasure to work out how many frequent flyer points I should get.

There is also that matter of the "his" income, I'd imagine the few female photographers we have would be apalled by that.
Wonder why the standards are so different across the board though...
Kernuak:
Under the scheme in Europe, I only qualify for Silver, because my second body (7D) only qualifies as Silver (yet the original 5D is Gold). Under the points system, I'd have 69 points and easily qualify for Platinum, even after selling a couple of lenses.

Not to mention ruling out half the population... >:( or am I being too PC?

Agreed. Could I stretch the definition? I have a fair bit of Canon gear (113 points, FWIW), and I do make images as part of my profession - does Canon really need to know that I make them using a Bruker MRI and a bunch of Zeiss microscopes?
