All the "Blog Buzz" related action will be near the bottom of my Buzz posts. I would like to keep it positive on the top 🙂

PointsCentric with his thoughts on the Chase Sapphire Reserve card. I pretty much agree on everything. I am not planning to reduce my credit lines. I have given up on becoming a Chase Private Client as they want to manage my money, no thanks! And brace for the most ridiculous pumping by the Chase blogger/sales reps that this space has ever seen as soon as they get their hands on the affiliate links for this baby! When they do, it will be totally pathetic for them to keep selling the Amex Platinum (for only 40k, burn in  hell!) and Citi Prestige cards but this won't stop them. EVERY cc click matters to them = more dinero! Say NO, choose a blogger who does not pump you to oblivion! Together we can move mountains. Or whatever…And don't forget to click on the final link in the PC link to understand that this has absolutely nothing to do with helping family and friends travel for free!

Register for the latest Accelerate promotion from IHG Rewards, another one of the recent Accelerate type offers. Mine were all crap and it appears to me these are getting worse.

Corporate Travel is Bracing for the Impact of the Marriott-Starwood Merger. Not only corporate travel but points aficionados too! Author is way too optimistic about the loyalty aspect of the merger. I am not. Because.Marriott.

Best Airports in Asia. If you did not guess that Singapore Changi airport was number 1, you are probably new in this hobby so may I suggest you get the Chase Sapphire Preferred card with my links? Woohoo!

Most Colorful Places on Earth. An AFAR list. Blinded by color, wow!

Craziest headline seen recently, WTF!: Pokémon Go players hit with a laser attack by pig-masked couple having public sex in Sweden 

Excellent overview of Small Business Retirement plan options.

20 Things to Know Before You Go to Luanda. Holy crap, I had no idea this place was so expensive! And the mosquitoes made me lose interest for good 🙂 I had no idea this was not Dubai!

IMG_4833The world's 25 largest defense budgets. Wow! As I just paid son's Fall tuition at the University of Michigan I am angry. Lets make tuition free again #joking

How I am getting 18 year old son to play the credit card game. Slowly & gently and picking your Chase spots 🙂

Here is how Stefan is going to handle the Citibank restriction. Executive card, cough. If only I had the direct link to smoothly insert it right here while pretending I am doing this for friends and family lol.

Holy crap, how angry bloggers and readers get! And then you are calling meeee angry, WTF! Before you ask where I stand on these things, here is my response to that. Lets move on.

And just when you thought pumping bloggers were about to run out of reasons to push more plastic…

This is dedication to the sales craft folks, how many days in a row is this business trying to shove this card down readers' throats?

Update: My condolences to Ford and Ben for your loss.

And I leave you with this…You are selling the 40k Amex Platinum and the Citi Prestige NOW? TBB does not support violence…TBB is a lover, not a fighter, woohoo!
