Podcasts about abroaders

Erik Paquet founded Abroaders with the mission to help other travelers have the freedom to roam the globe at a tiny fraction of the normal cost. Erik began learning about earning and using points in 2008 when he got his first ever signup bonus of 75,000 American miles. Since then, he has earned and redeemed more than 2.5 million frequent flyer miles. When he isn’t working, Erik is usually out exploring, meeting new people and trying to learn something new. For him, “the highlight of travel is the people you connect with, and the experiences they can open up if you keep an open perspective.” Get the full shownotes on the Under30Experiences Blog.

Today's guest on https://expatmoneyshow.com (The Expat Money Show) is Erik Paquet, the Co-Founder of http://www.abroaders.com/ (Abroaders.com) and the Co-Host of Abroaders Podcast on https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/abroaders-podcast/id796618604?mt=2 (iTunes). In this episode, we dig deep not only into the success mindset of an Entrepreneur living around the world but he explains exactly how all us Entrepreneurs can get free unlimited travel around the globe with some small tweaks to how we collect frequent flyer miles and how we use our credit cards. I don't know about you but 3 or 4 extra roundtrip tickets in business class anywhere in the world every year sounds pretty awesome to me! You can reach out to Erik Paquet at http://www.abroaders.com/ (Abroaders.com)   Free Travel Using Frequent Flyer Miles - The Basics... You are going to get the majority of your points from the bank by using your credit card... not from actually flying The BEST points to collect for free travel using frequent flyer miles are called "Transferable Points" The WORST points to collect for free travel using frequent flyer miles are called "Fixed Rate Points" To get the most value out of your frequent flyer miles make sure you are spending them on flights... and sometimes hotel stays The worst way to use your frequent flyer miles is for online shopping of goods, often the price of say a coffee maker and a one-way business class seat can be the same amount of points even though the dollar amount could be thousands apart...   Free Travel Using Frequent Flyer Miles - More Advanced... Using frequent flyer miles all you need to pay is the airport taxes... typically $50 to $200 a trip The government counts the use of frequent flyer miles as a "rebate" and not as income... so if you were to take $20,000 of free travel during the year it would not bump you to a higher tax bracket Making sure all your Facebook Ads and Google Ads you spend for your business are done through your credit card that is connected to your frequent flyer program Your Ad spend only needs to break even for you to get unlimited travel around the planet When signing up for a new credit card make sure you are getting a signing bonus of 50,000 + points for joining Purchasing a business or first-class ticket can be 5 to 10 times the cost using cash, but it is not 5 to 10 times the amount when paying using points. Make sure you check the difference and try upgrading your ticket   I don't want to spoil too much from this episode because you really need to listen to it yourself to understand the whole concept. You will also be able to laugh at how poorly I have used my points in the past LOL.

How much you can expect to save on travel for each point in your account? The answer can depend on where you're going and whether you book economy or premium cabin tickets. This week, we break down the point valuations published by the Points Guy and compare the numbers from the Abroaders booking service for 9 of the top loyalty programs. You'll also learn about Delta's latest price increase, a major change for Discover cards, and the future of Marriott cobranded cards. www.abroaders.com/198

AJ has figured out how to travel for nothing! He found the code on how to get around the world to different locations for up to 100x less than what the airlines are asking! The secret is frequent flyer miles and finding the 'sweet spot' as well as some good deals to pay much less! He had one customer who would have paid $20k for a group of flights but they were able to get it down to under $200!!!   AJ helps run Abroaders podcast and a company which shows people how to save lots of money on flights. They help you get the right signup bonuses to get you on 4 free flights per year! If you can spend $1000 per month on the right credit card you can be on a flight in 3 months!   We also talk a bit about the future as well as the incentives of the credit card companies. I have heard frequent flyer miles stuff before but this part was absolutely new to me!   The song at the end is a Ukrainian folk band I encountered in the underground Metro in Paris. You can hear me finding out they are Ukrainian and yelling over the music in a bit of Russian....but they didn't want to talk much

This year the Abroaders are partnering with Home for the Holidays to help people unable to be with their families for the holidays fly home using donations of Frequent Flyer miles. So if you've got miles to spare, or have been away from your family, have a listen and see if you can give/get one of the best presents ever.
