I first got started in the points and miles game when I realized I was leaving money on the table with every purchase.
While I was once hesitant to open a credit card, I've since learned just how valuable the right rewards card can be, and now I'm building my wallet into a rewards powerhouse that helps me travel more, earn faster and get more out of every dollar.
One of my cards (hint: it's on this list) even helped me spend three unforgettable weeks traveling through Europe this past summer — a bucket-list trip I never would've been able to swing otherwise.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on The Points Guy Articles.
