Hey there, points people! You just heard a clip from Anshul Singh from Points, Miles and Bling.
Anshul, is the founder of "Points, Miles and Bling" blog, and has been writing about points and travel since 2014. With a background in international recruitment and a history of work-related travel, he gradually became interested in using points for personal travel.
He has experienced different phases of the points game, from saving money to getting the most value per point, before finally learning to enjoy the game without stressing over it.
In this episode, Anshul and I discuss the concept of value in the points game, the evolution of one's mindset towards points, and a reminder that this hobby should add joy to your life – not stress. We also touch on the importance of having a good network of people in the points game and how it can help alleviate stress.
If you’re new to the points and miles game but don’t know where to start, I highly recommend starting with the Chase Sapphire Preferred® Card
Remember, if you decide to apply for the Chase Sapphire Preferred® Card or any other card, never apply directly through Google – always use a friend or creator’s referral link.
