Today’s episode focuses on the Chase Ink Preferred business credit card, which includes a massive welcome bonus of 100,000 points after $8000 spend in three months. This welcome bonus is worth $1000 cash or $1500+ for travel - a high return on spend of about 12% to about 18% or more for a low annual fee of $95. Chase improved the Ink Preferred bonus from the old spending requirement of $15,000, so now is a great time to profit from this likely limited-time offer.

Today’s episode features returning guest Marc Konchinsky. We discuss using credit to make money and generate spending plus credit card miles and points with online gambling websites. We delve into online gambling welcome bonuses, deposit and playthrough bonuses, earning grocery and gas rewards, and how to easily maintain an ongoing edge of between 2 and 5 percent with online Blackjack. This discussion is a more extensive follow-up to past Blackjack videos on my Hurdy Gurdy Travel Podcast YouTube channel. For examples of Blackjack play and basic strategy, head to my YouTube Blackjack playlist following this episode.
Before today’s discussion, some quick show notes. I host monthly in-person meetups in Willow Grove, Pennsylvania, with the group Greater Philadelphia Travel: Credit, Miles, and Points. Find more information at meetup.com/phillymilesandpoints. I’ll also be speaking at the upcoming conference Zorkfest, discussed in the previous podcast episode, which will include social events and sessions educating about miles, points, and gambling. Find more information at zorkfest.com, that’s z o r k f e s t dot com. Finally, I’m continuing to tinker with and improve my audio setup. Parts of this episode have low audio, so I purchased a microphone preamp gain device I used for the intro and outro. The audio quality will improve for future episodes.

Joining me for today’s episode is David Silverman with Aflac to talk about insurance products he offers for gigworkers, digital nomads, entrepreneurs, travelers, parents, and many others.
A common concern I hear is that people think they need a traditional job to have insurance, but many options outside employers are available. Even for those who are working a traditional job, Dave has many options for you...and you can use a credit card to pay insurance premiums and pay in advance to hit signup bonuses or high spend goals depending on the type of insurance. Find links and information mentioned in today’s episode in the show notes.

Thanks for joining me for episode 32 – Special Guest Waller's Wallet. Waller joins me to talk about his YouTube channel; the benefits of credit card rewards; and how the miles and points space changed his life for the better.
He's been uploading on YouTube since 2015 helping people maximize credit card rewards, save money, and dispel the myth that travel is too expensive. We also discuss skepticism people have about credit card rewards, reasons they don't get involved in the game, addressing common objections to motivate people to win traveling to places like Iceland and Hungary as Waller did.
