Episode 2: The World of Ultimate Rewards

In the second episode of Making A Points Millionaire, we continue the journey of taking a points and miles novice from zero to a million points/miles in one year. This podcast concentrates on financial literacy, strategy, and skills needed to learn how to take on “The Hobby” that has brought so many people affordable travel and experiences.

The Agenda:

  1. Introductions: @HJPreller and our new co-host, none other than Mrs. HJ
  2. Review last episodes assignment: 2 Chase Southwest cards and a Companion Pass: SUCCESS! Current status after one month: 125,500 miles
  3. Monthly tip: Cashing in on everyday dining with Rewards Network. As an example, here’s the Southwest version of it.
  4. Fraud: debit vs. credit. DO NOT USE DEBIT!
  5. HOMEWORK: Chase Ultimate Rewards/Chase Sapphire Preferred

The only payment we ever ask is to use our referral link if you choose to participate and get your own Chase Sapphire Preferred card. We only use links that offer you the best available offer, which at this time is 60k uber valuable Chase Ultimate Rewards points after spending $4k in three months.

Feel free to ask me any questions you have on points/miles on Twitter via @hjpreller or e-mail pointsmillionaire@gmail.com
