Happy Saturday! Hope you enjoy my top deals and finds from the past two weeks. If you do, please feel free to share. Thanks so much and have a great weekend!
🛫 Travel, Points & Miles
💳 Free Point.me for Amex Cardholders
Amex and point.me have partnered so cardholders now get free access to point.me. You’ll only be able to see availability for Amex’s 20 transfer partners, but if you combine this with the free point.me access you get as a Bilt Rewards member, it’s pretty comprehensive. Just head to amex.point.me and log in with your Amex credentials to get started.
🛒 Chase Q2 5x Bonus Categories
Chase just announced that the bonus categories for earning 5% / 5x points in Q2 will be dining, hotels and Amazon. To enroll your eligible card, go to chasebonus.com.

🤝 Bilt Swaps Alaska Airlines for American Airlines
Bilt Rewards announced they'll be losing American Airlines as a transfer partner in June. However, they're adding Alaska Airlines as a transfer partner immediately, which really softens the blow of this news and depending on your perspective, might make it a net positive. I asked Greg from Frequent Miler what he thought about the change and he made this great video debating the topic:
🔁 Current Transfer Bonuses
There's 3 transfer bonuses happening right now, so if you're planning a trip, these could make sense to take advantage of:
- Chase ➡️ Air France / KLM: 25% (through 4/30)
- Citi ➡️ Avianca: 25% (through 4/13)
- Capital One ➡️ Etihad Guest: 20-40% (through 3/31)
As always, I wouldn't recommend taking advantage of these if you don't have a trip in mind. In fact, The Points Guy recently published this list of historical transfer bonuses, so you can get a good sense of what to expect in the future.

🕵️ Great Finds
🏃 Sisyphus and the Impossible Dream
Casey is an incredible storyteller and watching this video really motivated me to believe anything is possible. I really hope you enjoy!
🗣️The Art of Persuasion with Daniel Pink
In this week's episode, I spoke to one of my favorite authors, Daniel Pink, about the science-based approach to become a better persuader. You'll learn everything you need to know about persuasion, which will definitely come in handy whether you're asking your boss for a raise, trying to get your kids to clean their room, writing an email pitch, or motivating yourself to achieve your goals.
📝 Become A Better Writer In 60 Minutes
I absolutely loved this masterclass episode on My First Million Podcast where they share the 3-step writing framework that helped them build $10M+ newsletters. Whether you write for a living or not, I think this one is a must-listen for all of us (I'm about to listen for the second time to take notes).
💵 20 Lessons From 20 Years of Managing Money
I really enjoyed this post from past All the Hacks guest Ben Carlson. There are some great lessons that I enjoyed reminding myself about, especially when it comes to reducing the complexity of your financial planning and investment strategy.
