Great article Dana,good to see the amount of comments you've received.As a long time reader of HD I've always been surprised that this topic has not been covered more due to the frugal nature of most people on her. I've been lucky enough to be doing this for a long time, and though I've never had a business or traveled for work I was able to accumulate more miles than I ever thought possible. After the Great Recession it was so easy to accumulate points and miles. We used to do App-oramas. We would APPly for 13 credit cards in a day and then once approved we would use manufactured spending to meet all the minimum spending requirements that were due in 90 days. This article brought back great memories of how easy it used to be to do this, but while it is more challenging now, it is still extremely rewarding, just a lot more reading on staying up to date with everything Glad to hear it has been rewarding and enjoyable for for you. This hobby is not for everyone, but if you have the patience and time to do it, keep at it! Just remember YMMV!
