Travel Is Free is not dead yet! Came back after a very long time to post the updated AA Miles Award Charts.
Again, it appears that the Citi Hilton cards may be gone very soon. Only zombie links out there. This post can help you decide Which Citi Hilton Card You Should Get? And one of them does not have the 24 month restriction. Help bloggers who don’t always “invent” content just so they can sell readers more credit cards!
Very nicely laid out, the process how to pool Hilton Honors points.
Remember that hotel that has only one bed with no walls in the Swiss Alps? Well, guess what? They opened a second location!
Not sure if you noticed…but scientists found the oldest known human fossils. In North Africa of all places. Mind blown type discovery. Hope you were not all caught up in so much bullshit vying for your attention online these days to miss this. And this is why I am here 🙂
Must read personal finance post: Bulls, Bears & Charlatans. Very similar to the miles and points industry as well, so many charlatans out there too!
I’m sure there were a lot of investors who were emotionally scarred from the financial crisis. Unfortunately, the crisis also spawned a large number of charlatans to prey upon those emotions. I hope investors are able to better understand that extreme predictions from charlatans — whether they call for a crash every year or tell you one can never happen — provide no useful value.
The Most Luxurious New Suites Around The World. Some of these are so nice. And doable with points but only if you have credit cards from my links. Oopsie, sorry you guys, I got carried away for a moment there, reading all these blogs every day…bad habits may form. Momentarily that is lol. The one I picked to show here is one we would never ever guess: The Nashville Suite, Westin Nashville.
For old TBB reader who has not been seen much lately, this one is for you man! A New Atmospheric Phenomenon Called Steve.
The largest employers in each US State.
Ladies and gents, welcome the 51st US State: Puerto Rico. Well, they voted for it. Good luck to them, looks nice!

Looks like Chase has its own Financial Review process. Be careful out there. The ones who stay under the radar…play longer 🙂
Here we go again…New Office Depot Rewards Program Coming July 1st, Earn 2% on Everything. Oh crap. This probably means the end of the 5% Ink card earning most likely. Should we hold a vigil? Or a bet on the date it goes down…#prayforInk5%
Hope….Good AA summer award space to London and Sydney.
I get more crap in my tbb inbox lately. Apparently, some marketing guy contacted me to work together as he is impressed by my car site. WTF!!!! And then I got an email telling me something like “Hey, saw you posted an article at wired about travel rewards credit cards so we did a review of the best cards, here is the link, can you add it to your site?”. So I visited the link and it was links to the same cards I have here….phuckingA! So many experts out there!
The Cavs left it on the field, congrats to the NBA Champions Golden State Warriors. And to their bench!
And I leave you with this…

What? No family photos with cards? I thought you jumped the shark this week?
UoM employs more than the car makers? Did they count the TA/RAs too?
TBBTheDude says
I need to convince them, they are holding out for a bigger cut of the earnings 🙂
I did a head fake when I saw that too about UofM. I guess they count my kid too having a real part time job there too…in the Fall and Winter semesters only.
TBBTheDude says
The post did not come up at 6.30 am. Due to late work from the Warriors winning the NBA championship…I mistakenly scheduled this post for June 14th…tomorrow!
WTF me!
Clearly, I am losing my edge…
Or need an intern to keep me in line.
Dml says
The Warriors will rattle anyone!
Steve says
Points Miles and Shitinis just posted…
5 Reasons I Got the Platinum Card
#1 reason, never stated, is the commissions they earn for selling it to morons who happen to read that blog
TBBTheDude says
Right below Renes Points…
Oliver2002 says
Drew has the same CC aff links as TBB, so the threshhold for content/posting freq and signups must have fallen… also sadly Amex/Chase/Citi/Barclays have lowered their standards again, so the blog survive to see another year.
TBBTheDude says
I do not think the 10 signups quota is being enforced right now. At some point, they will either do it or open it up more…Are you saying the opened it up more? I sure see more pumping, that’s for sure.
If it wasn’t for the cards, we would have more than 85% less blogs. I think I would still be here, sad!
MileageUpdate says
PR lovely to visit. Would be almost impossible to add as a state. How would they work out the Apportionment Act?
TBBTheDude says
Not happening.
State I mean
Carl says
@George, What car site? You gots another blog or something? I am unaware.
TBBTheDude says
No way I can do another blog. It was just a mass email from a marketer…Spam shit all over wanting to convert people to buy shit
TBBTheDude says
I took Points of Life in BA off my Feedly months ago. But pops up on Twitter BA feed sometimes. And every time I wonder wtf he is talking about, wow!
Not much happening today so slow, I am about to…yawn
SumOfAll says

It was a crazy day…
This blog reviews blogs. Judging is necessary. Someone has to do it instead of kissing ass to tbem for clicks.
