Almost everything that can be taken care of beforehand has been.

There are a lot of people out there that don’t like credit cards. I don’t know if “scared” is the right word, but it seems to fit. They’re scared that all the perks you may get by signing up for a credit card is too good to be true. They’re scared that they may start to use a credit card for what banks hope you use it for: living today on tomorrow’s (possible) income. Indeed, if you use credit cards like that, you’ll be up a creek… and it won’t smell anything like flowers.


Why the hostility towards credit cards?

​It’s true: I’ve been talking about how you can save a ton on travel with credit cards as of late. I mean, I
did write a book on it. So sue me. Oh! And you can buy it here if you’d like. You’re welcome :)


Anyways, where was I? Right: saving on travel.

Sometimes it feels like you have to do a reverse mortgage on your house (does anyone really know what that is, btw?) just to take a vacation! Maybe that’s why many Americans don’t take all of their allotted vacation time they get from work. Seriously, though. Vacations are expensive. And if you don’t do your research, planning, and saving beforehand, it could be devastating to your credit score.

Starbucks. What would I do without you?! And whatever you may think of the coffee chain, it’s one of the most successful businesses in the world. That’s because, since the return of their CEO Howard Schultz, the company has made smart business decisions.

One of those smart decisions: change the way their loyalty program works. Come April, the Starbucks Rewards program is going to be revenue based, which is a big change from what it is now.

It’s October. And that means many things. It means cooler temperatures for many. It means Halloween for others. It means playoff baseball. Heck, it also means the holiday season is nearly here!

Some are better than others. And some give you something in return (besides that good feeling you get when you do donate).
