The Little Things Add Up

 The big things are easy, right? House insurance for the year, we know to charge it and get our rewards. But, are you watching the little things? That cup of coffee? Grabbing a gallon of milk on the way home? Use the card for everything! Don't leave anything on the table!

Any good financial adviser would tell you to track your spending, know where your money is going. It's the same for the points and miles. Know where you are missing out. Cash goes in the bank to make the payment on the card, don't carry it unless you absolutely have to for a known activity.

At work or in any group, be the person who collects the cash and buys the pizza for the party, the flowers for the funeral or the gift for the retiree. Offer to be the gopher when it pays you back in free travel.
