A few United and Delta dining promos. For new dining members. Leading with something like this just goes to show you the state of the “hobby”, sad!
In case you missed it on the blogosphere, yesterday was the day that Capital One bank started making its points available to be transferred to now 14 airlines. It was supposed to be 12 initially but added Singapore Airlines and Emirates. Beware that most of the transfers are as follows: 1,000 Venture points to 750 miles. And the best partner, Singapore KrisFlyer, is: 1,000 Venture points to 500 miles. That makes it a sad lol value! Yes, the Capital One cards are available with my links but you must be really desperate. Or you can get approved that is, good luck!
These are nice: 5 (more) hidden-gem Greek islands.
Taj is going down: Twilight of the Taj.
I am no ski expert, just passing this along: The 10 Best Ski Resorts in North America.
Respect to Bill Russell. This is your inspiring link of the post, enjoy! Bill Russell‘s legacy, in his own words.
These are great: 21 Breathtaking Photos Of Isolated Tribes From All Around The World.
This is great: The World’s Best and Worst Places of Doing Business. You know Greece is screwed up when it gets beat by Moldova and Albania!
One of the most ridiculous characters out there today (I know, I know…there are so many!) is this John McAfee dude. Here is what he was saying about bitcoin when it was at $16,600, sad! Hey, it sounds like “travel” bloggers selling travel rewards credit cards, they NEVER say don’t get one lol!
Does anyone care that Capital One Venture miles can be shared with others, really?
Closed the long held MyPoints account after wiping out all points for $75 Starbucks gift cards. Trying to just stop screwing around for the little points thingies and focusing more on the whales…
Please help me find good stuff to share with all readers here, thank you!
I can understand bloggers selling credit cards but flashing dollar bills is way too creepy!
There was an outfit that used to pay money to people who got credit cards with their links. Its name: Affinityy. Well, I knew it would not last so they just stopped doing it. So, you have no excuse not to get them here, thanks! #selfserving
Amazing that bloggers continue to screw their readers by selling them the Amex Gold card offer for 25k MR points when they can get 50k if they are referred to it. I can send you one but you will have to adhere to the oath to never click on Titan affiliate links ok? ๐
The amount of pumping the Capital One cards was, well, same old for these bank sales representatives. And then…complete silence when the bonus dropped, yikes!
And I leave you with this…Say hi to ninja cat!

Finally got the 12,500 British Airways Avios from that settlement.
Finally got the 5,000 IHG Rewards points from that pic posting promo.
Still not a single point posted from that Marriott Rewards game…what a disaster this company is, wow!
Conversions stuck at just three this month…I need to contact Mile Nerd to give some retirement pointers, sad!
ABC says
Other things said by John McAfee:
โWhen I predicted Bitcoin at $500,000 by the end of 2020, it used a model that predicted $5,000 at the end of 2017. BTC has accelerated much faster than my model assumptions. I now predict Bitcoin at $1 mln by the end of 2020. I will still eat my dick if wrong.โ

He is gonna be SO wrong, but I am not watching a video of that though.
TravelBloggerBuzz says
He ‘ll probably try to make some money off of it I am sure. Pay per view…
Yikes…what a creep!
In the meantime, Emily is posting pics of her with shopping bags. Yesterday was $100 bills and dogs. And here I am looking for a conversion…maybe I am doing it wrong?
Anyway, lunch time. Coney island, rice lemon soup and small Greek salad. Going to a holiday party tonight. Taking Mrs. TBB too. She will drive me back ๐ Freeee.
MileageUpdate says
I thought at first your line read “$100 bills and dongs”
Sam says
Buzz-
Was that the BA class action over fuel surcharges? I decided to take the cash, but Iโve heard nothing. I emailed the administrator months ago-nothing. Iโm going to email again, then write the judge.
TBBTheDude says
Yes, that was it. Got 12,500 Avios. Happy with it. Now if only those Marriott Rewards points will ever post…
3 years in the slammer for Trump’s fixer, weak ๐

Nobody cares about campaign finance law violations.
Meanwhile, a p0rnstar paid Trump $300k.
