5 years feels both like a lifetime and a footnote. Our new firm was supposed to start on 9/1/2020 but New York State approved us 2 weeks early.

In the most chaotic 12 hours of our lives we had to buy 3 MacBooks from the mall, rent a UHaul, pack our old office in Pittsford, call all of our clients, and pretend like we weren’t freaking out.

Thank you to everyone who has joined us for this journey and we promise to always stay slightly chaotic.

💳 17 Credit Cards. $1,900 in Annual Fees. Over $5,500 in Rewards Each Year.
Sound excessive? Probably, but I love it. And its highly profitable.

Over the years, I've carefully curated a credit card lineup that optimizes every dollar I spend. By matching specific spending categories with the most rewarding credit cards, I've created a system that maximizes value from daily purchases.

The secret? The Chase Sapphire Reserve. This card is the strategic powerhouse that pulls it all together, giving my points and rewards a significant boost and making every card in the lineup even more valuable.
Curious about how a single card can amplify an entire rewards strategy?

Check out my current lineup below!

👉 What does your strategy look like?
