Turning everyday spending into free travel
Written from personal experience, this free course lays out a simple system: put spending on the right credit cards, sign up strategically for bonus offers, and pay the balance in full every month so it costs nothing in interest.
What you'll learn
- Why credit card rewards are worth paying attention to, and why flat 1% cash back is a weak deal
- How to choose which cards to apply for, and how often
- How to qualify for business credit cards
- Credit score myths versus realities
- How to track multiple cards and legitimately meet minimum spending requirements
Who it's for
Beginners curious about turning routine purchases into cash, gift cards, and travel — a practical, no-jargon system built over more than a decade of real use, not theory.
About this course
Over the last 10+ years, credit card rewards have earned my wife and I thousands of dollars in free money — in the form of cash, gift cards, and travel — just for buying the stuff we would have bought anyway.
It’s not hard. We just put as much of our spending as possible on credit cards, and strategically sign up for new ones with attractive bonus offers.
And because we pay our balance in full every month, it’s all been at 0% interest.
Some say banks and credit card companies are evil.
I think they’re awesome.
You just have to be smart about how you use them.
In this free course, you'll learn:
Why You Should Care About Credit Card Rewards
How Credit Card Rewards Work (and why 1% cash back isn’t a great deal)

How to Qualify for Business Credit Cards
Credit Score Myths and Realities
What’s in My Wallet and How I Track Cards

You might not think of credit card rewards as a side hustle, but it’s been a profitable hobby of mine for years.
After all, every dollar counts!
