Watching my money make money makes me feel like a mad scientist!
Also, I recommend the site PointsYeah and my dear friends new substack 'Shreycation' for foolproof methods re: hacking points and flying anywhere for little to no $$.
As a Southwestern girlie I am fired UP about flying home for less :))

Just opened a Bilt card so I get points off rent now (YAY), being able to book flights with points is sooooo satisfying

Truly not that hard to meet the limits and the benefits of the sign up bonuses take care of any annual fee you have to pay. Have taken many free flights with all my accumulated points!

I'm no financial advisor, and my dad might actually murder me for recommending this (apparently you're supposed to pay for things using money you already have?) (weird!), but Priceline accepts Affirm, so you can pay for flights in installments.
After getting a little drunk watching 'Mamma Mia' and crying on the airplane (my favorite activity, bar none) last January, I booked a vacation for Greece that I just paid off liiike this month. Smart? Not sure. Responsible? Who's to say?! But if you know you'll be able to afford $169/month for the next like year of your life and you don't mind the occasional overdraft, it def makes international traveling -- specifically, sitting on an island drinking cocktails brought to you by a very hot Greek waiter who says "that's sad" when you say you're there alone-- more accessible.

I really cannot describe how comforting it is to know that whenever I'm hungry I have 3 full taperwares of stewed black beans just sitting in my fridge.

I haven't done this yet, but I'm about to and I'm sort of giddy about it! My high school? The Dairy Queen parking lot? The strip mall where I got stopped by a cop for 'not turning my headlights on fast enough?' The makeout point that abuts the grocery store? Good lord there's so much to see! Please understand these places made me who I am!! There's a whole part of me you haven't met yet!

What voice do they use? Do they refer to themselves in the third or first person? Do they even have one? What songs are stuck in their heads? What intrusive memory keeps them up at odd hours?
