Down the “rabbit hole” of points & miles…

So some years back, 2017 to be exact, I came to a revelation. I decided that instead of PAYING for a plane ticket, I was going to accumulate enough points & miles to cover a “YOLO” trip. Specifically Africa (Nigeria), Thailand, Tokyo, or Dubai. All of those trips would be an $1000+ ticket, so I wanted to have that part of the trip covered without having to worry about any “out of pocket expense”.

I applied for my 1st travel card then, and THAT started my journey down the “rabbit hole”. Now I have 10+, and enough points & miles to fly ANYWHERE in the world multiple times.

Like most of you, I used to look at credit cards as a way to buy sh#t that I couldn’t otherwise afford, which in turn led to a “hamster wheel” of credit card debt. In my journey to get OUT of credit card debt (a whole ‘nother story) I “conditioned” my brain to think differently about credit, and a whole new world opened up to me. Now instead of requesting line of credit increases, I’m periodically requesting them to LOWER my line of credit (I currently have over $100,000 of available credit that I would NEVER use), cause if your line of credit is too high they may start requesting income verification document. And I ain’t trying have no credit card company all up in my biz, ya dig… So like I said, while I used to be someone who used credit cards to pay for things I couldn’t afford, NOW I used points & miles for things I otherwise WOULDN’T pay for (#bars! 🎶) . Like when I stayed at the Park Hyatt in New York, a hotel that’s upward to $1,400 per night, I used points and paid $0. For example you can literally have 100 people on a plane, and ALL of them paying DIFFERENT prices. There have been times where I paid less flying First Class, than someone did flying Economy. Get familiar…

Now common sense will tell you that the easiest way to obtain flyer miles, is to do what? Exactly! FLY… That’s actually NOT the case. The easiest way to obtain points & miles is the signup bonus from opening a new credit card. Which is why I have so many. Duh!

There is NOTHING that I do as far as traveling that any one of you can’t do. It just took me years of research, trial & error, and mistakes. That knowledge I’m willing to share with you, by first showing you how to accumulate the points & miles, then later showing you how to maximize the USE of them. So if you want to start this journey of aspirational travel, invest $25 into YOURSELF, and click the link below to fill out a short consultation form. You’ll earn that back 1000x over. And when you DO, catch me in the skies!

One thought on “Down the “rabbit hole” of points & miles…”

  1. So, I don’t normally write reviews.  If there was a rating that I could give for the consulting that Norris provided, I would give 5 stars.  I was beyond happy with the service and process.  Based on my own research, I had already had my mind set on which additional credit card(s) I wanted to obtain to supplement with what I already have to maximize my rewards.  However, I decided to complete the consultation form anyway.  The form was user friendly and I was able to complete and submit it fairly quickly.  The response that I received came via email and was timely and provided which cards were recommended for me based on the responses that I submitted.  The consultation response was a concise step by step guide on what I needed to and when. I was also provided with recommendations of what types of products/services I should use each card for in order to maximize rewards.  So, with that, I immediately applied for my first card. I was approved immediately. Against Norris’ recommendation, I decided to apply for the 2nd card. However to my dismay, I was denied. I was shocked. Based on further consultation with Norris, I called Chase immediately.  I’m happy to report, I was then approved for the 2nd card!
