Great interview, Megan. I think the most compelling point out of all of this was how important it is to earn transferable points. Good reminder to diversify your points so there is less risk if your preferred airline changes their loyalty program. And it's not a question of if, but when. And speaking of questions, let's play a listener question.

I will say of these choices, the Capital One Venture X is a really good choice. One reason I love it is because you get a $300 travel credit. You can use this credit for bookings through Capital One Travel, and they actually have really good prices there. In fact, I was just in Palm Springs, and I used my $300 travel credit to pay for a rental car.

The rental car was about $250, which was the cheapest price that I found really anywhere when I was comparison shopping anyway. So I have $50 left for the year on mine. Now, on top of that $300 travel credit, you get 10,000 bonus miles. That's equivalent to $100 towards travel every year. That is starting on your first anniversary. So the Capital One Venture X has a $395 annual fee.
