As this blog is about to lose its main source of little revenue…make no mistake that other blogs are probably feeling the heat as well and the hunt to convert newbies is getting more intense. Because newbies can be so easily fooled to click on credit card affiliate links, sad! As banks continue to stick it to the bloggers who continue to try to fool their readers to click on inferior card offers when they should be doing the right thing. Which is now the referral thing: How the Great New American Express Referral System Works – and How to Maximize It.
The IT guys finally fixed that Marriott sweeps thingie. You can play for 29 days. On first day mi familia earned 50 Marriott Rewards points each. Per TPGΒ points valuation…never mind π
In case you got this card: Five Things to Do When You Get Your New American Express (Rose) Gold Card. Anyway, the author Omar, or Travel Summary as you may know him, was the FIRST commenter on my FIRST blog post back on November 9, 2012. Wow…this is an eternity in blog years! Barely standing still. If I was willing to go low like these guys maybe I would have bigger commercial success, sad!

Are we at Narcissism peak yet? How self-love got out of control. Must read imho. Goes far to explain what is happening in our crazy political world.
Have you ever wondered what a trillion dollars looks like?

I was shocked, just shocked, I tell you…when I saw this blog finally had a credit card conversion come through this month! Thanks to the reader for the support, enjoy your ChaseInk Business Preferred card and those 80k Ultimate Rewards points!
30 miles run already this week, with Friday still to go! Two personal records so far this week #winning. Better than losing in conversions lol.
If you are scared about the stock market drop, please chill out. Normalcy has returned, this investing thing is not supposed to be easy! Stop looking at your 401k statement, looking at you Ramsey! For some perspective:

Wow! I do miss the 6:30 postings!

Me thinks bots sleep in?
TravelBloggerBuzz says
Things are so strange even I….slept in this morning. 6.37 am I got up…slept like a baby with those leg muscles totally out of it! Oh man, so much to do today…

78,000 skymiles to go to GIG in coach, not much of a deal.
TBBTheDude says
Nice form actually, much more refined than I expected!
Enjoyable game yesterday between USA and Colombia.
Yeah, that GIG was no deal!
Pepa Mujica says
Dude, I really like your blog but I think you’re always complaining about the lack of support.
Maybe you’re not using the best referral system?
Why I’ll apply for an Amex gold card with 25k points when at rankt.com I can get it for 50k and I’m really helping any other normal guy like us and not a huge corporation behind like creditcards.com ?
Same goes with Chase Explorer card, where do you have the 40k plus $100 credit? Again, your referral system is weak.
Just my two cents… Keep posting, don’t give up π
TBBTheDude says
What the hell is the “best referral system”?
My readers are not sheep like the Titan blog readers. Of course I would not try to trick them to apply for a 25k amex gold card, WTF! And I am the only one who warns them so we can all protect newbies be4 they are raped by the successful blogs:

I recommend readers to check out the Mile Nerd Top Credit Cards link before they apply or email me so I can direct them to the BEST offer!
Yeah yeah yeah….Telling me not to give up while beating me up…Just like Mileage Update…Oh wait…
Just enjoy the free product here. Remember, if you don’t support it…the creators behind them…give up! The blog dead bodies are EVERYWHERE!
Aaron says
I like the click bait “Paris Hilton” in the title today! Funny stuff. Keep up the good work.
TBBTheDude says
I embraced my inner Gary Leff with that one π
TBBTheDude says
Super busy day since I slept in!
Thanks for the 2nd cc conversion this month. Enjoy your 60k ThankYou Premier card.
Warning: Do not procrastinate if you plan to apply for a card. When you see Titan bloggers SCREAMING that a card offer is expiring and you plan to go for it…DO NOT WAIT UNTIL THE LAST DAY. Because…they pull them off my cc links FAST! Sorry for reader who did not get to help support the blog but I do appreciate the effort!
Thanks to reader who committed to donate $15 per month via Paypal. MUCH appreciated. If more people did that (like Ramsey and Mileage Update and…Ingy) two things would happen: Less whining and I may keep this baby going…Lets see what happens…
Should be interesting next week with me going away to a conference. Thanks to my lifesaver monthly pump post…I should be okay π
Got to catch up with some reading. For you. Freeeeee.
I think I have enough for Sunday. And a HILARIOUS VIDEO that just TOTALLY describes…TBB! Heck, I may even share it tomorrow…Should be better than the moronic clickbait aboard incidents crap you see at the Titan blogs.
Apparently, Fan at TPG found about the squirrel and just had to cut and paste about it…Lol
Is Ramsey okay? Dang Federal Reserve sabotaging the Prez….woohoo!
TBBTheDude says
Whaz up with me these days? Slept in again…woke up at 6.17 am, WTF!
Doing those runs in the evening may have something to do with it I think. Too cold outside, doing 72 laps in the gym is beyond boring..wow. Your blogger, the only one who is losing weight while all other bloggers appear to be getting fatter and fatter, knocked out 36 miles last week. And a few PRs in the mix too!
Funny how some haters beat me up for whining…while they let all the Titans off the hook while all other not Titan bloggers pander to them…asskissing at its finest. And that Rene dude goes on a mega “click my links to support me because blogging is HARD and even Delta can not keep its own blog going so click my shittyAmex links” lol.
I still say all the TPG staffers should not get too comfortable. The PE money will run out. Amex appears to be killing the sales commissions to bloggers. The bank/credit card environment is just getting harder. Maybe they should be all focusing on learning more important marketable skills. And PLEASE hold the bullshit now doing editorials about the Saudi journalist and how your company stands for press freedom…we all know your company stands to sell credit cards. It may make you feel better doing these self important announcements but…if there were no credit cards your company would not exist!
Oh crap, today the University of Michigan football game is at noon…better not drive to town lol.
My son signed yesterday after managing to increase his signing bonus. Heading to NYC after graduation next year after…he takes four months to travel around the world. I see burned miles thanks to his dad. I am blown away how much money these big tech companies are throwing at Computer Science majors these days. And I am learning a lot about the benefits of the company…Facebook.
I have a hard time picking the five Best of Web links for tomorrow….Good problem to have π
You all have a great day!
Raffles says
Odd how I run a blog primarily around one airline, a smaller one than Delta, and manage to do well enough to pay for an office and a full time staffer.
In fact, that is actually where there is a gap in the US blog market. Think like the flyer. Most flyers are focused on one airline – not always through choice – yet where is the blog for the guy who only flies AA or United? This is also how you get the valued mainstream business traveller newbies.
TBBTheDude says
You can not compare the US and UK markets, they are vastly different!
Also it is important you started early π
Remember DeltaPoints? It became RenePoints π
FullMoon says
Primero.
Congrats to your son, such a fun time of life
TBBTheDude says
Hope the company is still there eleven months from now π
Thanks!
ABC says
Absolutely, few can break their FB addiction. Stock is down 30% so he may get lucky (once vested) to make a down payment in the Bay Area in 2030!
TBBTheDude says
Already secured transfer to NYC. He’ll be good for that by…2025 π
TBBTheDude says
Conversion #3!
Thanks to the reader who got the 80k ChaseInk Business Preferred card!
Sunday Best of Web post is already scheduled!
Monday post is at least 75% in already.
Phuck, it’s cold!
