PointsPlayer
Let's Get Acquainted
I'm Darren: PointsPlayer. Husband, son, nephew, cousin, fur father, and hopefully one day, human father. My wife, Kate, and I both love to travel for leisure when we're not traveling for work. My first travel loyalty program was opened for me at age 10, and I began building my credit at 18 years old when I opened my first credit card as a college freshman. I now carry a total of 17 cards (and counting) and participate in multiple dozens of merchant and travel loyalty accounts to all my most frequented brands. A lover of travel and all things live events - sports, music, stand-up comedy - I enjoy paying for our experiences with money I've already spent on life's necessities (and luxuries). Who wouldn't?!
Whether your goal is to make a little cash back with every purchase, stretch your points for all they're worth, spend a few nights in paradise, or anything in between, follow along for some tips, tricks, and best practices on maximizing your returns.
