Whether you’ve been hoarding points for years, afraid to redeem them, or unsure how to make luxury travel feel possible—this episode will show you how quickly things can change.
In this episode, you’ll hear from three Points Made Easy students who went from:
✔️ Avoiding annual fees and fearing a drop in credit score → to traveling 7+ times in a year
✔️ Treating points as too complex to learn → to booking luxury hotels and multiple international trips
✔️ Thinking first class was only for high-powered executives → to flying Lufthansa first class and being driven to the plane in a Porsche
“I would’ve spent $88,000 booking these flights. I spent $2,900 instead—all in first class.”
“I went from one credit card and no strategy to confidently planning three international trips a year.”
Turn your expenses into points and save tens of thousands of dollars a year on your wishlist travel. Points Made Easy, my comprehensive online program, is enrolling from March 22nd to 30th. Don’t miss out - click here to enroll today!
