Roberta Mancino wingsuits through Panama City Skyline. Oh Roberta, wow…in more ways than one!
An escort talks about her job. “Money is Money”. I found this a fascinating read!
I made an update in the “Blogs I Like” list. I added two blogs under the “Personal Finance” category. We are all about quality around here, these are highly recommended! They are:
Above The Market – The latest “The Great Myths of Investing” is great!
Memos from Howard Marks – Every one is a masterpiece.
Mindblowing images of dancers in nature. Well, my mind was blown indeed!
And I leave you with this…
I still see new blogs coming online wanting to show readers how to travel for free with miles and points. Let me break it to you guys. I admire your enthusiasm but….you know…please, do yourself a favor, you probably don’t have anything that unique to offer to make it out there in a sea of so many other blogs fighting for attention. And you really have NO idea what it takes to keep a blog going! You have been warned!
Thank you for making TBB a part of your life, I am honored! Help bloggers you appreciate & make a positive difference in your life by spreading the word about their blogs, emailing and commenting and using their few $ links.

TBB Chapter of the Carolina Panthers Fan Club says
GO PANTHERS!!!

“Careful there” says the former Valley of the Sun dweller with finger hovering over the unsubscribe button! 😉
TBB Chapter of the Carolina Panthers Fan Club says
If the Panthers don’t win, I’d be happy to see Arians and Fitzgerald get a ring. Not so much Brady or Manning. Go NFC!
TravelBloggerBuzz says
At this point I don’t care much. Yeah Phoenix just because they remind me of the Lions and makes me believe we can do this someday.
I am just tired of hearing about Brady this, Brady that. Hope Manning deflates his balls.
TBB says
Deflate Brady’s balls!
ABC says
How do I buy MO w/ my CC at WM?
TravelBloggerBuzz says
The intern quit, sorry 🙂
Oliver2002 says
The Google flights article was meh. There is more that can be done with the syntax, forcing routings on fares that were not exactly what the airlines had in mind. 😉
TravelBloggerBuzz says
Yeah, good for newbies. I picked up something I didn’t know. What I don’t understand is why they don’t fold it into one product (ITA Matrix)??
JamaicanReefer says
It is good to be the 12.9%-er yet striving for more!
TravelBloggerBuzz says
Been a crazy day…12.9%???
JamaicanReefer says
Above 20 days of vacation in the vacation article table. I’m somewhat above yet it is not enough. A few trips a year of 10 to 20 days are the best.

¿qué coño IHG IS OUT OF PRIZES? WTF!
https://www.reddit.com/r/churning/comments/41p21m/priceless_surprises_not_winning_any_points/
I have been here sitting in my cell filling out entries and envelopes for the loco IHG contest, now they are out of prizes? ¿qué coño
EL CHAPO's Miles and Points On The Run says
This is worse than getting my penal implant and no Mexican actress to try it out with. Now it’s in the way all day and gets wet when I sit on the toilet.
Josh says
I just got my first few emails last night and played 2 games with no points awarded to me. Waiting to see what this means.
TravelBloggerBuzz says
I resisted doing this because I thought IHG was going to mess it up. Plus, it takes too much time…
Congrats on all who made it worthwhile. I told my daughter about but she pretended she did not hear me…
Josh says
Update: They are starting to work again in case anyone who did it cares.
bluecat says
I am SOOO happy I didn’t do that insane IHG promotion idea with the 50 postcards (or whatever) to try to win something. Anything that time consuming….no way, Jose.

TBB, please get juvenile and add a caption to this

Well, actually I don’t know how to insert them arrows 🙂
But, if I did, we could have a field day with this one!
Wow!
Mike says
Got this 100K offer from Amex Business Platinum, the fee is $450, the $200 reimbursement they have got narrowed down to just AIRLINE fees such as baggage and in flight refreshments, how’s that going to benefit me flying business ? Also, can only be for your ONE airline that you pre-designate when you get the card. 10K in 3 months spend, no “cash for cash” eg. gift cards, MO, etc. in other words they have closed about every single loophole they could think of, making this card just about useless.
I’ll pass.
bluecat says
Mike, are you playing with us or what? if not, what are you doing in this hobby? We consider what you wrote to be GOOD.

Read this Escort article a while ago, and remember thinking back then that it must be required reading for every MBA program in the world. Good copy-editing, too.
