Money at 30: Our Latest Credit Card Point Redemption Win
In the past few years, I've often written about earning credit card rewards and maximizing my setup to get even more of them. Yet, my plan for redeeming all of these points has been less thought-out.

Money at 30: When the Fee Hits - The Platinum Card 3 Years Later
All year long, I write about the various awesome things I get to do and ways I get to save with my American Express Platinum card. Nevertheless, when the annual fee hit my account earlier this month, it reminded me that holding the card does require a commitment.
