About 7 years ago, I got an invite to the highest level of two programs for a year (platinum? vibranium? i don't know.) I used travel about once a month for work, which is not nearly enough to earn those levels. It was amazing -- lounge access, free upgrades, free limos, free food and drinks, front of the line, expedited service everywhere, endless gifts (who doesn't need more socks?) It was a pretty good year to fly. :-)
