That is correct, my bad. Thanks!

Yep…sorry to say. This is how it begins 🙂

At the same time bringing in 63 cents over the weekend sure is not cool either…

I get it…

Suzyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

What might happen in the next few months is that you will see a cc link in the body of a blog post. Then the next week a link in a sidebar. Then the following week a couple of more links within a blog post. Then the following week his cc “expert” does a guest post about credit cards. You have seen this scenario played out in various forms many times before, no?

I LOVE that card 😉

You’re confusing the new Amex card with the old one. There is no CB limit or annual fee for the old Amex Cash. https://www304.americanexpress.com/credit-card/blue-cash/25330

Yes thank you, a lot more honest way to go about this. Thank God the day job is bringing in enough to keep me going because I can definitely tell you how I feel somedays which is probably the same as what the other bloggers go through:

It is a bitch keeping up a blog and, gosh darn it, I need to get compensated for my time. If the banks are willing to pay to refer cards to readers I might as well take it and not let it go to someone else!

Or something like that….I could be doing other things with my time you know…

But somehow I keep going and going like the energizer bunny…waiting for my mother to say come take care of me I broke my leg/arm/whatever….And that will be the end.

It’s late, just kept talking about miles/points stuff in our local Ann Arbor Meetup group…I am addicted to this hobby. It’s like crack!

Same here about respecting his ideas and philosophies mostly. And this was just not expected at all, I am still shocked about it!

Guess my pumpization scheme post will never be linked to his blog LOL.

That blog could be bringing in a heck of a lot more than $30k per month, LOT more! Probably didn’t even need the cc money. But it does not take a rocket scientist to see the potential you guys…I can see that from my own experience with my 3 links that probably do not bring in together more in a month THAN JUST ONE CC APP!!!

Well, I’m not really sure where is the BS part of MMM’s article (aside of his unfortunate statement that Delta adds fuel surcharges). My personal rule, as well as many others players’ is not to apply for a credit card that has less than $400 bonus in cash or equivalent points at 1:100 ratio (I make exceptions, but rarely). Considering that I am conservative and apply for no more than 5-6 cards every 90 days, and considering that many cards offer much better reward than the equivalent of $400, I find $10,000 annually quite a conservative estimate.

I am so so shocked the offer was extended, so SO shocked!
