I've been working on unlocking the 60k bonus travel points (80k when I signed up) on the Chase Sapphire Preferred card. It's my first time getting a card specifically for the rewards and so far it's going well. Depending on how I use the points, they should be valued at at least $800, which easily offsets the $95 annual fee.

ETA: As for being my daily driver, its 3x points on dining and groceries is nice, along with 5x on travel. The points are stacking up noticeably faster than my Discover cards did.

I first heard about the FIRE movement on Reddit, but the way it was presented there felt too strict to me and put me off of the idea. That was until I decided to search for some financial podcasts to listen to at work and stumbled upon ChooseFI.

They made the lifestyle changes feel easier to accomplish and didn't make it feel like pursuing a FIRE path would take away from my current lifestyle.

Overall it's just been easy listening and has really fired me me up to take control of my financial future.
