We have it so good in the US with our banks always being so generous 🙂 They may be starting to do this across the pond too: Virgin Money launches one-year fixed savings account offering air miles instead of cash interest – is it any good? It is not but…it is a start I guess!
This will be helpful to anyone planning to visit this place: 23 Things to Know Before you Go to Freetown, Sierra Leone.
You know I like places that are not so common to travel. Discovery genes I guess. Here is another good travel post: Hiking to Butakovskiy Waterfall in Almaty: Kazakhstan Nature at its Finest.
Incredible indeed, WOW! This HQ 70mm Footage of the 1962 Monaco Grand Prix is Incredible.
If you are interested in the subject, this is really good. The Evolution of Investing.
Another song for you from one of my favorite bands, Kraftwerk. They are so old now they are dying off. This band was decades ahead of others and influenced way too many artists to list. They did electronic music back in the 1970s! I have had the privilege to see them twice live. One was back in the 90s in the Detroit Fox Theater in a legendary concert, I am still in awe about it. I saw them again a few years ago, great show again. And if you wondered where I get my fascination about robots 🙂
Super slow weekend in the blogs, wow!
No more Fairmont Presidents Club, it is now part of Accor. Super sad! I am going to burn two free nights at the Fairmont Miramar in Santa Monica in August. Oh, and I decided to do another three nights at the Hyatt Centric The Pike in Long Beach. All freeeeeee!
Spain joined Germany and Portugal on the way home from the World Cup! It is wide open now!
And I leave you with this…

Detroit is indeed a hub for industrial type of music. You we’re lucky to see Kraftwerk!
TBBTheDude says
Techno started in…Detroit. Three guys in Belleville (next door) high school. Youtube has a nice documentary about it, I may link to it one day.
Mondays are always slow…
I think I keep my cc links for another month. Lets do it again. Thank you . And thanks to my wife and son too lol.
My running continues:

6/30 7 miles
7/1 4 miles PR
Sicario 2 was great. But nowhere as good as the original. But still great. And III is coming.
Can Mexico do it today? I think they can. Will I bet money on it? Nope. And I think Japan is toast if Belgium does not take them lightly.
You all have a great week. Weird with July 4 coming on a Wednesday!
Freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeedom!
TBBTheDude says
Of course Mexico goes down at this stage. It’s like clockwork. Every World Cup. Sad!
Neil says
Cripes stop it with the great links. I’m only halfway through the Roman Empire in 40 maps. Absolutely hypnotizing (highly recommend Mary Beard’s SPQR). Happy 4th.
TBBTheDude says
Okay, I am going to start blogging about my xx reasons I love my CSP card then, thanks!

Clown Gleff is now using GIF’s in his content to go along with other people’s written work. TBB invented the GIF/content concept. wtf.
TBBTheDude says
I am the King of GIFs!
If I was Rene I would have sent GL an email about how he steals my intellectual property and threatened him with a lawsuit
ABC says
Wow, I feel sorry for Japan. Amazingly well done by Belgium to get back from 0-2. 5 goals in 3nd half. Who said football is boring?
TBBTheDude says
Same here. UNREAL game, wow! Ref should have whistled game over after the goalie secured it as it was over the injury time allowed and I do not think there was extra added on top of it. Let the two teams battle it out in OT. It was clear to me that Japan thought the game would be over right after the CK and this is why they pushed forward. I know, I know…just saying.
Japan was so close to a date with history against Brazil they tasted.
Yeah, so boring. Lol.
I expect fireworks tomorrow in the Colombia England game!
bluecat says
I loved how Japan almost knocked out one of the teams I hate today. I wish Mexico won too.
On happier news, my wife got her Citi Thank You Premier so….you’re welcome, Buzz!
TBBTheDude says
Yeah, I wanted the underdogs to win today but…
Thank you bluecat!

So, the Iberia 9k “deal of the year” is giving bloggers, please sit down, reasons to post more blog posts about the “developments” going on with it. You know, Iberia locking out accounts, asking for passport verification, blah blah blah….But nooooooooo, we won’t get to see the blog posts about how some of these geniuses phucked up (and most importantly, screwed some of their readers). No way….but you will see blog posts about how they managed to snag a business class seat for some Avios and oh, here are all the Avios earning cards that pay us a commission…
Rinse.Repeat.Same.Old.BS.
Meanwhile, we get to see Emily over and over again in Part 879 on her trip to France, yawn
Raffles says
I bet few of them had Iberia affiliate links because they would never have thought they would come in handy. Missed out on $49.50 per set of 10 bookings ….
Sam says
Buzz-
I’m confused.
What’s an Avios?
Asking for a friend.
Nick @ Personal Finance Digest says
And who’s Drew?

Hey TBB, you should be selling the new Hyatt card non stop. 60k Hyatt points can go FAR!
Warning: PointChaser is back and she now has direct Barclay affiliate links. You know what that means. This is a warning!
TitanMenace says
Is Doctor of Credit in love with Gary Leff’s clickbait videos or what? Why does he keep linking to the VFTW blog? Sad!
TBBTheDude says
England won in PKs.
That’s it.
I may take the day off tomorrow…
Wow
Raffles says
It’s coming home 🙂
Never seen my 7-year old son happier (in all seriousness) than when the last penalty went in. At 10pm, 2.5 hours past his usual bedtime!
