In today's episode, we talk about Ricky's journey from getting into the hobby to building up his blog and going full-time as a content creator, blogger, and YouTube star.

Many content creators such as Ricky and I love producing blog posts, podcast episodes, and other free content to help spread the joys of award travel.

Two of the best ways you can support your favorite people who create free and valuable content like this are

1. tell ALL your friends about how awesome the content is so that we can get more eyes and ears on our work and

2. please use our referral links for new cards. Whenever you apply for a new credit card, please use a referral or affiliate link from a friend or content creator whose content you find useful, so that they get a referral bonus or commissions. Please please please do not ever simply Google a card and apply from there, without comparing offers to what you can get through referral and affiliate links.
