Def. an interesting topic. Curious to see who the true "heavy hitters" are...
My monthly averages are: 20k/month from BankDirect (AA Miles) 15k/month for business related (Ultimate Rewards) 20k/month for personal spend (various) 10k/month manufactured spend (various) My manufactured spend was crazy high during the Mint Days. And I also get probably 1/3 of my points from sign-up bonuses. |
Also.. just to get the basics right, Manufactured spend is spend that you eventually get back?
|
8k UR biz exp. monthly.
|
H***S***!
I had no idea people were into this and bringing in this many points per month! I'm pretty new, but I thought I was doing really well bringing in about 6k/month with half as manufactured spend. |

It is spend (i.e. GC's) that you are cashing out or somehow getting the funds right back.

Come on this is FT, you can't just have a new thread not titled 'getting spending up without the mint' talk about getting spend up without the mint and how you actually do it! Madness! I get them through a Txf from Virgin. But I can say no more else I will be cast out of the private forums where you have to pay 1M UR points just to be accepted into. |

And a "Wow" to 30k HH? Lol.... |
I don't get how people have such high manufactured spend. I am new but I see AP and the GC 5x route. After these I have no idea how you guys are generating so many points.
This is my first month trying to get manufactured spend, but I get about 20-25k through real spend |

6x HH is too easy & skews the numbers. Kinda like 5x IB. Come Spring, more tears showers will be falling on FT than rain from the skies. |
2012 was a very productive year. Gained over a million miles/points through credit cards signup, manufactured spend and OD GCs..
|
Damn, I thought I was doing well with about 15k on average. I need to work much harder. Business owners have an unfair advantage.
