Has anyone who has used credit card points to fund travel and be willing to talk to me about your experience for a story?

Friday afternoons in May smell like sunscreen, taste like takeout and sound like my 10-year-old blasting his musical theater playlist poolside ☀️

Third party intermediaries for major insurance companies seem extremely unnecessary. Can someone who knows why tell me why this nightmare of a process exists? Explain it to me like I’m 5, please…
Has anyone actually used travel rewards credit cards to pay for an entire trip? How did it work out? How long did it take? Is this really an option?? Inquiring minds would love to know...
You know what would be AMAZING?! If scammers wouldn't try to take advantage of people looking for jobs. THAT WOULD BE AMAZING.
Solidarity to everyone in media today dealing with more layoffs. It’s so tough out here. 💔
(If you got laid off on 4/20, though — maybe embrace that part if you can?)

This is my first year with two kiddos taking standardized tests on the same day (tomorrow) and the emails I got today reminding my anxiety-prone self to remind my anxiety-prone children that they have NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT is……. stressfuuulllll 🎶

What’s your biggest money stressor right now?
Are people worried about how to pay specific bills like rent and groceries? Or more concerned about paying off debt or planning for the future?
Or is it more like when your next paycheck will come??
This thread, but make it media 🫠

Long ass thread about why I'm NOT voting YES on the WGA SAV.
I've been poor my entire life. I moved to LA with no financial support system, ended up living in my car for two months, before finally landing an assistant job on a long-running show (CSI).

I was asked recently why I love baseball in Houston so much, and I couldn’t really articulate anything coherent. Because it’s just… all of the stuff like this.

If I can recommend anything to fellow #layoffs2023 survivors, it’s definitely a trip to a Texas hill country winery 🍷

It’s tragic that Silicon Valley Bank could lose 80%+ of its value in a single day.
But what’s crazy is that the financial collapse was largely driven by a communication collapse.
Their storyline unraveled and their messaging went off the rails, in 4 big ways.

I'm still looking to speak with more women about their biggest money fears (+how you overcame them!) — for now, though, here's some retirement food for thought 💸

I’ve achieved a parenting milestone.
My oldest warning my youngest while playing playground tag with a third kid: “Hey watch out, he can do parkour.”
The mom on the next bench, mostly to herself: “Ha I wonder if he knows that from The Office?”
Me: “That’s exactly why.”

What's your biggest money fear as a woman? Whether you've overcome a big financial fear or have a small money-related worry, I'd love to hear from you for a story.

Watching the Endgame credits (as one does) and my 8-year-old just asked, “Why are there so many people named Chris? Is there a Chris party going on there?”

What's the biggest money mistake you've made in the name of L-O-V-E?😍 Did you make a cross-country move in your 20s only to get dumped shortly after? Blow your budget on a big wedding in your 30s?
Please DM or comment if you're willing to share for a story I'm working on 😀

I was part of the mass (emailed) layoffs at BDG this morning.
After nearly 4 years at , my heart is pretty shattered.
I don’t know what the future holds for me, but if anyone needs an experienced lifestyle writer, I suddenly have a lot of extra time on my hands!

One of my favorite interviews was with Twitch & Allison. They blew my dancer-mom brain in one short conversation with their kindness, wit, and love. This one hits hard.

The thing about getting Wordle in two tries is that I’m so excited and proud, but I really wanted to be distracted longer than 30 seconds.

While we’re talking about #FreeBritney, can we all just admit that the legal system in the U.S. is severely broken? Shattered. Nobody wins except the lawyers, judges, and lawmakers — and many of them like it exactly that way. The “help” offered rarely helps those who need it.
