Free money time of year
I almost forgot that it was that time of year again.
Every year around late February or early March I get free money in the mail. Today I got one of two checks that I get every year for doing absolutely nothing. I do no extra work for these checks. They just show up each year. How do I do this?
This goes back to my Paying bills sucks… stop doing it post. On that post I give you the simple 3 step process on how I do this.
The gist of it is simply get a credit card that pays you dividends or a percentage of what you put on the card each year. I do this with an Amex card I use for eating out, travel and gas at Costco as I get 3%, 5%, and 2% respectfully on those things and 1% back on everything else I put on that card.
Then I also use my REI Visa card for everything else. If you love outdoors gear I highly recommend this card. Sign up for this card and if you use my REI member number you’ll get an extra $20 gift card from REI. My REI number is: 03206230
If you haven’t read the Paying bills sucks… stop doing it post, I recommend it. It lays out the instructions on how to do this and what to avoid.
