November Snapshot Update –> up 30% in 30 days!!
Dec 1st
November has been a busy month for the credit card promos for me, with so many floating out there – I think for sure all of this credit freely flowing is an attempt to get people back in the habit of spending.
- Discover More Card ($100 cash back after spending $500)
- Chase Ink Card ($200 after 1st purchase) I opened up two of these cards, and bought 2 of the most rewarding cups of coffee ever!
Here is how November added up:
- Paid Survey - $1.00
- Target Gift Card from AAA – $5.00
- Credit Card Promos – $500.00
Toughest part of November with all these bonuses was weather or not to grab an iPad with all this free money. Trying not to pull the trigger on it yet..who knows what will happen in December.
Currently at: $2,171.00
Last Month: $1,665.00
Change since last month +30.40%
Change since Inception +117.10%

October Snapshot Update –> I’m UP 67%!!
Oct 29th
OK so its the first month since I’m back on track for this project and here is where I stand right now:
- Brokerage Acct - $1225.00 (approx)
- Bank Acct Opening Promos – $250.00
- Credit Card Promos – $190.00
For the bank promos I opened up 2 checking accts and did a refer a friend on the second one, which paid me $25 and the other acct $25 (ching-ching!)
For the credit card promos I opened up 2 Starwood AMEX accts, made a purchase and got a $100.00 Amazon gift card which I liquidated on Ebay, (after fees and postage roughly $5 each card) I kept $95 per card.
Currently at: $1,665.00
Started with: $1,000.00
Change since Inception - +66.50%
While I am geeked a bit by my gains as modest as they are – the goal is to keep the ball rolling.
