Digital Nomad Flights: Always Be a Loyalty Club Member

Earning or buying elite status on airlines is hard af. Even for me. There are a million ways to ensure you don't get a middle seat next to a screaming baby and a rude weirdo in the aisle right next to the bathroom. But one thing people don't get is that they need to be a member of the loyalty club on each and every flight on each and every airline. Even if you won't be flying often or soon, you don't want to be the lowest person on the totem pole. The airlines will literally consider you last in all things when it comes to seat placement or bumping you. It's easy to sign up. Do it before every flight and make sure you book your tickets with it.

The Charles Schwab checking account is a must. It's free and easy to sign up for...enabling you to access virtually EVERY ATM WORLDWIDE WITH ZERO FEES!!! Seriously. There's no catch or monthly minimum. You never get a charge from them for using an ATM, and they rebate all the fees you rack up using any network ATM. Exchange rate is favorable. You should never ever go to an exchange spot in an airport, train station, hotel or mall. It's a no-brainer to get this account and ATM card.
