The Amex Green Card Now Covers Your Entire CLEAR Fee
Standing in the shadow of the American Express Platinum and Gold cards, the Green card seems oft-forgotten these days. Despite having an iconic look and getting a revamp in 2019, it’s rare that I hear anyone mention this card.

Travel Tuesday: Why I Love RSVLTS Shirts for Travel
I’ll admit that I am not the snappiest dressier by any means. In fact, my style is not only simple but hasn’t changed in 20 years or so. Thus, the vast majority of my wardrobe consists of jeans, t-shirts, and hoodies. Nevertheless, there are times when I need to dress it up a bit —…

My Email Was Down For One Week and Ruined Everything
That headline is only slightly dramatic — but, seriously, who knew that a full digital inbox would somehow lead to a full physical inbox and more? Let me explain.

Fi Smart Collar (Series 2) Review: Is it Worth It?
A few months ago, my wife and I expanded our family by adding a dog. And while I’ve already shared some of the expenses we’ve incurred since bringing Rigby home, I wanted to go more into detail about one item we purchased for her: a Fi Smart Collar. This is actually something I had my…

Fold is Offering 20k Sats to New Debit Cardholders in November
The last time we checked in on Fold, I shared a hack about how to get 5%+ back on Amazon… only for that option to be nixed not 48 hours after I wrote about it. While that was a setback, there’s been positive news from the Bitcoin rewards app as of late. And, now, Fold…

Travel Tuesday: Motel 6 – Anaheim, CA Convention Center Review
A couple of weeks ago, I shared a look at the La Quintas we stopped at as my wife, our dog Rigby, and I made our way to California. So, today, I figured I’d talk about where we stayed once we made it to our destination: the Motel 6 near the Anaheim Convention Center. Truth…

Bilt is Offering a United Premier Status Challenge to Customers
Before I begin this one, let me acknowledge that, yes, I have been talking a lot about Bilt lately. But, in my defense, that’s only because they keep doing fascinating stuff! Of course, it also helps that I’m now a Bilt Mastercard cardholder so my attention is heightened. Still, I wanted to share their latest…

Over the course of the five years that I’ve been publishing content on YouTube, the platform has seen a number of changes. Yet, what is perhaps the biggest update to the site arrived stateside last year with the introduction of YouTube Shorts.

US Bank is Launching a Unique Rewards Credit Card for Shoppers
Next week, U.S. Bank is set to launch what may be one of the most interesting rewards credit cards I’ve seen since I started paying attention to such things. Dubbed the Shopper Cash Rewards card, this offering allows customers to earn cashback amounts for specific retailers that likely top what even their co-branded counterparts feature.…

Travel Tuesday: A Tale of Two (or Three) La Quintas
Last month, my wife and I set off on a road trip to California. A major reason why we choose to drive this time instead of fly was so that we could more easily travel with our dog, Rigby, who’s still getting used to life with us. With her in tow, we decided to not…

Link Your Delta and Starbucks Accounts for Bonus Perks Now
I’m going to level with you: there was a ton of Quick Tip fodder this week. Yet, one story proved itself to be so absolutely perfect for this slot that I couldn’t deny it. Somehow, this news combines two companies that we’ve talked about a lot on this site and adds in free stuff. Plus,…

Top Credit Cards with TSA Precheck or Global Entry Travel Credits
Even for the most seasoned travelers, airports can be filled with stress. Oftentimes, this starts not long after entering the terminal as long lines may greet them at security. On the bright side, programs such as TSA Precheck can help flyers reduce the time they spend in line. What’s more, with the right credit card,…
