In case you didn’t know, I’m a millionaire. \u00a0It is a wonderful feeling. \u00a0I open up my wallet and I’ve got all kinds of bills in there. \u00a0Four years ago I was broke, and look at me now. \u00a0Going from zero to a million is awesome, and the best part is that you can become one too.<\/p>\n

Feel like a Millionaire<\/h2>\n

Tonight I casually opened my Award Wallet and found this nice tally at the bottom showing my total amount of points and miles:<\/p>\n

\"million<\/a>

I’m officially a millionaire!<\/p><\/div>\n

You better believe it. \u00a0My wallet is full. \u00a0Being a millionaire is awesome! \u00a0The only unfortunate thing is that my wallet is not full of $100’s, $50’s, or $20’s. \u00a0It is full of AAdvantage Miles, Starpoints, and Gold Points (Which really isn’t such a bad thing after all). \u00a0I may not be able to buy a new house with them, but they can be used to help me travel places that I wouldn’t otherwise be able to go.<\/p>\n

Why you should become a Points Millionaire<\/h2>\n

When people hear the words “World Travel”, they usually associate it with big money. \u00a0They think, “Only the filthy rich have an opportunity to do something like that.” \u00a0They automatically block it out of their mind like their childhood dream of being an NBA star was crushed when they were cut from the 5th grade basketball team. \u00a0Well people; this is somewhere that you can keep on dreaming, moving forward, and make it happen!<\/p>\n

Traveling makes you feel rich too. Roaming the streets of Milan and window shopping in the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele<\/a> makes you feel invincible. \u00a0It is still worth it even if you’ll never waste $50,000 on the Prada purse or $100,000 on the Tiffany jewelry. \u00a0 Standing there in one of the most prestigious malls in the world gives you wings, and makes you feel like a bad-A.<\/p>\n

Becoming a points millionaire makes impossible things a reality for you and your family. \u00a0Who knows how long this bandwagon will ride, but you better get on before it stops. \u00a0Live it up and take some unforgettable trips as a family. \u00a0Live like the millionaire!<\/p>\n

Some Things Aren’t Too Good to Be True<\/h2>\n

We had someone tell us the other day that our blog was “too good to be true.” \u00a0It was a fair enough statement for someone who ignorantly didn’t even read our posts. \u00a0If someone told me that I could travel for “Free” to multiple locations across the globe I might be skeptical too. \u00a0The truth is, that it was only “too good to be true” because she never even read our material.<\/p>\n

Sometimes in life things may sound that way, but they’re really not. \u00a0Here is a small summary of the awesome trips that we’ve taken since I started using points for my travel instead of dollars:<\/p>\n
