Been doing that since 2016 and my skill with computers compounded to the point that my VR hobby is now self-sustaining, I use it for meditation, cardio and socialization. If I had've put the last 18 months of bills + hardware transactions through a point program, I'd have all my accommodation in...

Considering this, will take more planning but it could be doable if I planned well enough. I will still have the place I stay now as a back up with all of my cough in it and free access to stay there without even contributing to utilities or paying board if it's not for weeks at a time...

I've seen some of those and considered getting the wine deal once per year to give away as gifts/have booze on hand for friends. I just picked up a Bankwest Qantas Transaction account that pays out 5 to 1 QP/AUD on purchases in Australia and 5 to 1 QP/AUD on cash withdrawals overseas and I got...

That 60 bucks will get me to another city into a lounge if I have status or membership, it will earn miles towards a room which is hit with a multiplier if I have silver or higher. It will also let me be in position AT the airport lounge, ready to buy vacant seats on under-booked planes, surely...

Because I'm seriously considering taking literally any flight I can get below 60 dollars twice per week just to spend time in airport lounges eating and drinking free while I do homework, taking flights at night whenever possible and sleeping on board whenever I can get a comfortable enough seat...

I can do my schoolwork from anywhere, why not do it in flying domestically in and out of business lounges eating free food and drinking free booze in between flights bought last second for cheap to stay in hotels paid for by miles? Assuming I stay with my carer 3 days per week I could take 3 50...

I'm not offended or angry, I don't think anyone is talking down to me or making fun of me but I think you might be underestimating my capabilities when it comes to working with systems on limited resources. I'm a disabled person but I'm also a techie with better hardware than virtually all of...

Fair enough, I thought the bonus applied to QP and SC but it seems like 1400 points is achievable in a year using promotions even with a multiplier on SC. I'm not too worried about the effects on my health, waiting in queues and sitting in small rooms while using electronics to pass the time is...

How much value can one extract from platinum one membership? It seems like there is loads of perks with higher membership levels, including direct awarding of QP once you hit a certain SC level per year. 3x 400 SC runs in a year during promotions would see you hit silver status on your first...

I was able to together an example status run on business class for 2200 SC on my first try that would hit silver status in one flight with 6 overnight stays in 6 cities, 3 international, 100 SC off gold status during a double point promotion. Two runs during double points per year would net 800...

I've got a decent trip planned for Japan but I'll be coming back to Australia and saving for another trip like that would take a long time. This way when I return I get to visit a bunch of places for a day, night or afternoon and then move on quickly while accruing the max points possible so I...

Hi, I'm a chronically disabled person who spends their spare time building playing with hobby development tools for VR systems when I'm not trying to survive my illness. I'm going back to school in February again and so I've had to make some purchases such as a phone(comms/vr) and...
