The increased Amex Hilton card offers expire today. I would appreciate it if you know what you are doing and really want them…you consider getting them with my links. This blog will be “enhanced” when I lose the links for…performance reasons. In a way…I hope I do so we can all move on, sad!
If you are going to Greece…you can now book the Grand Hyatt in Athens! Can’t wait to find out what award category this property is.
Interesting initiative. W Hotels To Launch Their Own Music Festivals. Phantogram has signed up! You must be staying at the property it appears. And you will bid for other stuff happening as well, such as 60-minute DJ master classes, in-suite after parties with featured artists and off-site adventures curated by festival talent. The first four festivals are now set. For more dates, click HERE. Will I ever be invited to any of these for free like so many other bloggers? Still sad!
As Amazon is watched on everything it does, this will certainly be interesting when it comes out: American Express to Launch New Amazon Cobrand Card to Enhance How Small Businesses Buy.
Speaking of Amazon, the Prime discounts will now appear in ALL Whole Foods stores!
Finally, a GREAT AFAR list 🙂 Secluded Mountain Restaurants That Are Worth the Trek. Have you been to any of them? Worth it?
This may interest some of you: The world’s most expensive and cheapest cities to live as an expat. Most expensive is Hong Kong. Cheapest is, please sit down, Tashkent in Uzbekistan.
I only post stuff here that makes me money I find interesting and I think you may benefit from. Always adhering to the blog mission. Well, probably not for long…but hey, enjoy it while it lasts! The Norwegian blogger Gunnar Garfors gets to the bottom of some of these References, World’s Least Visited Countries 2018.
Get your own passport photos. For $0.09. You love it you cheapskate!
I have never seen “leaf insects” like this, WOW! When Someone Says, “Show Me Some Cool Nature S#*t”.
Your personal finance fix of the day: Three Uncelebrated Edges. It is pretty scary how much I agree with this in my day job! I may do some crazy stuff with my miles hobby and here blogging but I am SUPERBLY boring in helping clients, always tell it like it is, and I am a HUGE fan of keeping it simple and avoiding ridiculous bells and whistles!
I LOVE these pictures here! How the US has prepared for nuclear Armageddon.
Maybe I should move Visual Capitalist to the Blogs I Love instead of keeping it in the Blogs I Like 🙂 The World’s 100 Most Valuable Brands in 2018.
Don’t make me quit this blog! Because I want to see this weekend-only blogger get even more angry lol. (#11 and #15).
Wells Fargo will revamp its Propel card. Yawn…
Windbag Miles with his thoughts on the “deal of the year” (LOL) Iberia Avios deal.
Amazing how bloggers RUSH to post ANY “deal” that can come with a bunch of the affiliate links of the cards they sell. Like the Amex Platinum adding a $100 credit at Saks Fifth Avenue. Zzzzzzzzz.
Best award to burn Marriott/SPG points is the Travel Packages. So, here is good advice: Navigating Marriott’s phone prompts to book a Travel Package.
When you have banks cooperating (if rumor is true) I think we may be seriously phucked, sad!
Ok, this was funny by Mile Nerd:

- Find a dishonest blog.
- Go on a bad date with Bill Cosby.
- Get 1,500 points from this promo.
Dramatic final moments in the 2018 World Cup in Russia. While the morning games left much to be desired, the afternoon games were full of drama again. Messi and Argentina were almost knocked out by Nigeria and Iceland. Again, like in the Portugal vs Iran game, the favorites made it through…
First TBB blog commenters get Gold here. But you are not the only ones, me and my “Gasping For Air” soccer team went undefeated 7-0-1 and got the Gold as well. One, Two, Three: GASP! After the celebrations on the pitch, we were mobbed by adoring fans #notreally
And I leave you with this…

Picking up an easy (jet lag) first.
Just added link to an FT thread with my biggest fan boy 🙂
I miss Ingy so much, come out man! I wonder how retirement is working out for this guy 😉
Another great cat gag!
great and scary as well!
Wow, I had no idea it was so expensive to live in N’Djamena, Chad.
Yeah, the expat housing allowance there should be pretty good. On top of the security detail lol.
Luxurious indoor soccer field. With access to fields like that the US should be in the WC.
Much better than the indoor soccer fields at Trinidad & Tobacco!
Every few months you brag about your weight loss. What happens in between?
And ALL the time you complain about your conversions while making fun of all the bad guys who only care about conversions. You’ve become quite pathetic to be honest.
What happens in between? Well, this time is different! LOL
I ran 10 miles straight today man, I am trying.
I do complain about conversions. When they stop. Soooooo, got my wife the Citi AA Business Platinum card. I am trying! LOL
Let me give you a tip: Do not say “to be honest”, just don’t. Try to be honest all the time. You are welcome.
Oh, thanks for the support. I miss Ingy more than you 🙂
What amazing games in the World Cup this morning, WOW!
Pathetic Germany managed to lose to a heroic South Korea side who saved Mexico’s behind after they lost, in a true chocking fashion, to Sweden 3-0.
If South Korea can beat Germany, you BET that Serbia can beat Brazil!
Grab your popcorn.
I still can not believe I ran 10 miles today. HighFive me 🙂 And congrats to my wife for getting the 70k AA Citi Business card, thanks for your business 🙂
I predicted that from Mexico. Start well against Germany and suck against Sweden. Now Brazil will eliminate Mexico and Switzerland will play against the other Switzerland in the other round of 16 game.
You sure did!
Every team has a bad day inn the office. Hopefully Mexico got theirs out of their system and can now shock Brazil. Must admit Brazil looked pretty good…if only Germany had the same urgency.
This is why you play 90 minutes. Congrats to South Korea! And that goalie with the haircut from the 1950s! Listening to the game…I even heard “Kim Chun Lee” or something like that…who plays for a second division club in South Korea….when you look at the other side and the ones at the bench make millions per year…Loved it!
Meowsor!
Meowson
in Icelandic 🙂
Another CC approval into your June bucket, Buzzy. No ann fee Hilton, 9:42pm 6/27 your time.
You’re quite welcome, thanks for your blog!
Thank you very much. There is a lag…
Last time there was a conversion that paid was on June 18, sad!
Doubt it will be enough…Thanks again.
You guys are going to make me a Friday interview at MMS

Which airlines/routes may release saver award seats on short notice from the EU to the US? Looking for weekend return to the US in July. I am not looking for LH first class.
Plenty of award seats going to the EU. Nothing going back.
Weekend is what’s killing you. Otherwise check LOT from WAW and now BUD. UA miles from TXL, BRU, FRA and MAN. I presume you don’t want Delta – huge YQ from Europe.
