Tim's credit card tips

[ericr962]

I just finished the 4hww and all I can say is wow. It has completely changed my goals and what I believe to be possible.

Anyway... In the book Tim writes about his credit card tips that rack up the frequent flier miles that earn him free airfare. He references "piggy backing" and other credit tips that I thgought would be available on the web site. I can't seem to find them, does anybody know what this is about? In any event good luck developing your muse and figuring out what really is important to you. Thanks all.

Agreed, this book is changing lives! But Tim does say in the book that the site will have info on using the right cards, piggy backing, and multiplying your points - I don't see it on the site here, either!

Tim??

And I have accumulated over 1 million miles on American since 1997 (though a part of that was through work - I went to London a lot for business, and circumnavigated the world on one trip London - San Fran - NZ - Singapore - J-Berg in one month).

Thanks Philncedarpark but those arent really what I'm looking for. Credit card assist is an affiliate page and smarter travel is a travel page. Webflyer has plenty of cc information but of the high maintenance variety. I appreciate you taking the time to post these links, thanks for sharing.

Anybody have any ideas about what Tim was talkiong about?

the best website I know about collecting frequent flier miles is

http://www.freefrequentflyermiles.com/index.htm

it seems to me that piggybacking miles is the same thing as double dipping- using your credit card to purchase airline tickets so you get the miles from the credit card and also the miles for the flight

If you are trying to collect miles you should also check the website of the program you are considering- there are usually a lot of other ways to collect

...over the last few years I have used my frequent flier miles for three trips to Europe, one to vegas, two to jamaica, and will be going to russia later this year...
