How I can help you succeed
"I love your page and am so grateful for all of your advice!"
"Thanks to you!! I am new to award travel, so this was my first big redemption! I used the sign up bonus from the Chase Sapphire Preferred, plus the referral and bonus from referring my husband. 100k points transferred to Hyatt equaled over a $5,000 savings! I love your page and am so grateful for all of your advice!"

"We accumulated 1.8 million points in one year. I still can’t believe it."
"I just want to say thanks to you I heard all about travel with points and miles! It’s been exactly a year and we’ve been to Secrets Moxche, Baha Mar, Hyatt Hill Country, California, and Reno! We have a trip planned next April to Bora Bora, hotel and business class seats are all book. We accumulated 1.8 million points in one year. I still can’t believe it. So thank you!!!!"

"It's truly changed how I view and use credit and how we pay for travel."
So little story...before I ever knew of points or your account I picked the Andaz and Tabacon in Costa Rica for my honeymoon. And then I found your video from when you went and I was able to get 6 nights out of our stay for free, and just this weekend we had a Ritz stay (also free). Thank you so much for your guides and content! It's truly changed how I view and use credit and how we pay for travel.
