I tried to capture my actual statements, but was thwarted by the
security firewalls so this will have to do as "art"
security firewalls so this will have to do as "art"
Today, however, when I received my monthly statement from Marriott Rewards informing me of recent activity to my account, it became abundantly clear why Caleb is so confused. Since January 1st, we have stayed in Marriott hotels 113 nights - we have accrued well over six figures in rewards points - and we have achieved Platinum status, the highest available status. To put this in better perspective, were we to stay in a Marriott every night beginning today for 113 nights, we would not check out until January 2, 2009. Ironically, we will likely use our amassed points and Platinum status for another flight and a few more nights at Marriott, thus further convincing Caleb that our preferred mode of transportation is an airplane and our favorite place to lay our heads has miniature toiletries and regular maid service.

That is insane. 113 nights in a Marriott? You are personally supporting the church with tithing paid by Marriott
wow.... you guys have been away from home.... 113 days!?!
Yikes! And I thought we traveled alot, ok well maybe not so much me and more Andrew, but still. Wow! At least you're getting something out of all those nights away from home! :) Just so long as you don't start bringing the toiletries home (Andrew insists he is helping us "save" money by stocking up our toiletries with the miniatures instead of just buying our regular stuff, which could be true, apart from the annoying task of having to change the bottle every few days! but still I appreciate his efforts to provide :)
oh and thank you and I will send on the birthday wishes - one day we'll actually be together on these important occasions! until then, more inspiring thoughts to keep my mind off it :)
He managed to accumulate so many, we had to give half of it away to one of the earthquake charities (people still need toiletries even after an earthquake right!) and we gave half of what was left to his mum, and we still have a large bag full! I've tried to save the best ones for guests (not that we've had (m)any yet) but that still leaves plenty, and he keeps on bringing them home, but I am grateful he is thoughtful like this :)
Yes, but don't you love your platinum status? My husband travels all the time for work, so he gets upgrades right and left thanks to that status. Probably not as fun as I imagine it to be though.
Hey, atleast someone else is making the beds...I'm all for it!
Love the plethora of posts. BTW, we went to see George and Theresa. They're fantastic, and they send their love.
You say "miniature toiletries and maid service" like it's a bad thing!
When we were in the middle of baseball life, Jaxon used to always say-- when are we going back to our hotel?
He loved them
Works for me. Housekeepers, mints on my pillow, what's not to love. Your son is a jet-setter.
I too like places with miniature toiletries and daily maid service. And if anyone out there has more miles/points/free anything than they can use I am willing to do service and take them off their hands! Especially airline miles...
Maybe you spoke too soon. Chavez doesn't do anything halfway. If he expelled the Ambassador today, tomorrow he might send everyone packing. Hope you guys are enjoying yourselves amidst the craziness. Keep safe and our best to all.
Good day !.

There have were times of troubles when I didn't know about opportunities of getting high yields on investments. I was a dump and downright pessimistic person.
I have never thought that there weren't any need in large initial investment.
Nowadays, I'm happy and lucky , I begin to get real income.
It's all about how to choose a correct partner who utilizes your money in a right way - that is incorporate it in real business, and shares the income with me.
You may ask, if there are such firms? I have to tell the truth, YES, there are. Please get to know about one of them:

Hi there!
I would like to burn a theme at this forum. There is such a nicey, called HYIP, or High Yield Investment Program. It reminds of financial piramyde, but in rare cases one may happen to meet a company that really pays up to 2% daily not on invested money, but from real profits.
For several years , I make money with the help of these programs.
I don't have problems with money now, but there are heights that must be conquered . I get now up to 2G a day , and my first investment was 500 dollars only.
Right now, I'm very close at catching at last a guaranteed variant to make a sharp rise . Turn to my web site to get additional info.
