He's been counting -- and not just out loud, but writing it down on paper-- since 1969. He reached the number 3,227,146 in 1975.

It took us about two years, though we started posting 1 number at a time, but ended up posting batches. We made a lot of cyber friends and had chats along the way, now we don't know what to do with ourselves! A group of us got to a million on Friends Reunited here in the UK just recently.

That lazy lazy man. If you count at a conservative rate of one number every second second for eight hours a day it would only take 69,4 days. Up the pace or count longer every day and that number drops significantly. Count to one billion instead, that would truly be wasting your life. At the same pace as above it would only take just over 190 years. Three months? That lazy lazy man.
