Especially future people who are listening to this way far away from now, of course, these offers can always change. Another thing to mention is that we will be talking about a few credit cards from companies that are NerdWallet partners. I just want to let you know, the lawyers make me say this, but that does not influence how you and I, Megan, discuss them. Okay, so should we dive in?
