As the saying goes, don't judge a book by its cover. The same phrase applies to a credit card's annual fee.
Take the Capital One Venture X Rewards Credit Card, for example. While this premium rewards card has a $395 annual fee, several valuable ongoing perks help offset the full cost.
Those perks are in addition to a substantial welcome bonus: 100,000 bonus miles when you spend $10,000 on purchases in the first six months from account opening.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on The Points Guy Articles.
