Howdy! After the success of last week's discussion thread, I figured we should keep going. Feel free to comment below with anything and everything money related that is better suited to a conversation or a quick question and answer than a full post. Some ideas include:

  • Journaling about an ongoing job search
  • Asking for ideas about how to manage an emergency fund
  • Logging recent stock trades
  • Talking about the impact of inflation on your budget
  • Your plans for maximizing the rewards on a credit card

Again, those are just suggestions, if there’s really anything you’d like to talk about related to finance in your life, feel free to put it here.

I'm unfamiliar with the churning term, what is the idea behind that?

Sign up for new card, hit bonus, move onto next card, cancel the card after 12 months.

Huh that seems involved. Doesn't that affect your credit score? Also don't you have to spend a lot of money to get those bonuses?

Depends. I never dip below 750 so it’s not as big of an impact as people think.

For spend, organic spend if you have a business can be sufficient, or if you manufacture spend.
