You ever have that feeling when you know something is wrong, but you convince yourself that it isn’t?

Credit Card churning is something that goes hand-in-hand with the whole FIRE and slow travel mentality. If you are going to be traveling around and there’s a company out there that will give you a handsome sum to do something you are doing anyway, why not? At the moment we’re approaching 1 Million Chase Ultimate Rewards points, and here’s some…
