New member here - hello!

I used to be quite active in the points/status game while working in the US. After stepping away from my industry for a while and moving back to Australia, I've unfortunately watched those balances and status disappear... something I'm regretting now - so essentially starting from scratch again.

Looking to get back into it and rebuild - keen to learn the best current strategies for earning status, points, and maximisation of both (especially from an Australian perspective).

For anyone who has been in a similar 'starting over' position, where's the best place on this forum to begin? Any recommended threads or resources for newbies? I've been listening to the Travel Pointers podcast and can already see the value in this community.

Thanks!
