If it was not for credit card pumps, flight deals and sales, other types of shopping and gift card deals, weekly summaries, totally unimportant “events” nobody gives a crap about, repetitive “reviews” of the same premium flights and same hotels…this blog reviewing job this blog does…would be a heck of a lot less busy! Especially for what it pays, $89 for the first 10 days of December, WTF #facepalm
Ok, now that I feel so much better hehe, here we go:
Sign up for the latest IHG Rewards Accelerate Promotion. As it has been the case all along, my offers were crap. Again, if you travel for work and can decide where you stay…it makes sense to see what hotel promotion makes the best sense for you. For leisure travelers like me who don’t pay for hotels (and flights)…the promos of the last several years are just awful!
The Gate takes a look at all the apps out there trying to get air passengers to hook up. There are several! I stick with Ashley Madison. One account, who needs four 😉 #joking So, this is where a blogger will ask a cheesy question to invite reader participation and increase page views to make more money…I don’t care if you do not use Tinder woohoo!
Ok, this guy emailed me and has posted on Flyertalk and probably everywhere he could find. Actually, I like the videos he makes, they are well made, there is some talent. But I don’t get the business rationale behind it. Rich Travel / Poor Travel.
Ok, since we already started talking about dating apps and stuff like that. You know one of my favorite movies of recent years is Ex-Machina. Robots, AI, technology, relationships in an increasingly tech dominated world, you know…Just one quote by the CEO: “The fact is that many of these people lead very empty existences and are unable or unwilling to form relationships. We’ve given them a sense that there’s someone at home waiting for them”. It gets even more wild. One hint: AutoBlow2. Got to get me an affiliate link for that baby #yuge! Here is the article: Artificially Intelligent Sex Robots With Functioning Genitalia Are a Year Away. Enjoy!
Hey, would you rather read some other blogger fake excitement again for the AmexPlatinum and the Ritz Carlton card while selling them for the gazillionth (is this a real word?) time, huh? You will never be bored here, this is my mental escape….counter balances my other life quite well being responsible for the well being and nest eggs of my clients protecting them from salesmen predators!
Your personal finance fix of the day: Mindless Eating & Finance. The subject of behavioral finance fascinates me. How people make the same mistakes over and over and how difficult it is to change! I always said that good financial planners are in the behavior modification business.
19 stunning winners from the Nature Photographer of the year contest. You are welcome.
The Meta-Anti-Propaganda pictures from North Korea.
Beautiful picture of the Kinkakuji (Golden Pavillion) in Kyoto, Japan.
And I leave you with this…WTF is wrong with people these days!

It’s okay to take the weekends off. I take Saturdays off here too.

Welcome back!
Nick @ Personal Finance Digest says
George,
I know what the words “division”, “leading”, “Detroit”, and “Lions” mean individually but I’m flummoxed seeing them strung together. Not sure what to make of it.
TBBTheDude says
Yeah, it is very weird! If this was the end of the regular season, Detroit would have a home playoff game after a bye, WOW! Unfortunately we have a long road ahead:
-Away at NY Giants
-Away at Dallas Cowboys
-Home Green Bay Packers
But, most importantly, our QB Stafford looks like he totally screwed up his middle finger in his throwing hand…which pretty much precludes, well, a Lions like finish…
We have seen crashes before around here, we are attuned to them…This team must be the worst 9-4 team in history, it has defined winning UGLY. But it wins….
