Nowhere except in Frugal Travel Guy's regular, ongoing advisements to not be greedy. Not to mention the advice in other blogs on guarding credit, applying for cards in an arranged sequence, planning for trips ahead of time, etc.

It's amazing to see a crowd of people looking for something for nothing criticize as greedy others who show them how to do it. On the other hand, maybe it's not that amazing at all.

Sorry to inject a fact or two into the rants. We can now return to our regular programming.
