How I was able to afford Roundtrip Flights to Japan(~$7500 value) for only $65 at the age of 19.

CREDIT CARD POINTS: It's surprising how many people aren't on the Rewards Train. Last November, I jetted off to Japan for a mere $61.65 and 115,400 miles – and no, I didn't have to break the bank or rack up a $100,000 bill! 🌏💸

How did I do it? Enter the world of Sign-Up Bonuses! My main credit card set up includes Chase Freedom Unlimited (20k Points), Chase Freedom Flex (20k Points), Chase Sapphire Preferred (90k Points), Chase Business Ink Cash (90k Points), and Chase Business Ink Unlimited (90k Points). The result? A whopping 310,000 points or 310,000 miles in my pocket. And hey, that's not even counting the extra points from my everyday spending and referrals! Also guess what, I actually bought two round-trip flights not just one! I'll also be going to Japan in May and I was able to redeem those flights for around 165,000 miles/points and ~$63.

Now, the best part? I didn't have to morph into a big spender. The most I threw down for a sign-up bonus was $6,000 in 3 months (Chase Sapphire Preferred, Chase Business Ink Cash, and Chase Business Ink Unlimited). And for those of you thinking, "I don't drop $6,000 in three months," worry not (I don't either) – there are clever ways to boost your spending on paper (e.g. paying Taxes, Rent, and Utilities with Credit Cards)

But wait, there's a catch: this game isn't for credit score newbies or those only spending a few hundred bucks around each month(mainly those living with parents or still in school). I advise having at least a "good" credit score (670+) before you start Travel Hacking, and if you're ready to dive into the world of free money and epic travel, join our community!
