Do any of you have advantage plays that you use either on a regular basis for small amounts or maybe occasionally for large amounts of EV?
For example, I have signed up for a credit card recently that gives $200 back after you spend a given amount on the card. A pure $200 profit for simply adding a little extra credit (If anyone is interested I can email the information, requires above average credit score and is a big bank).
Another one (more common but still not utilized by the majority of people): Look to eBay before looking anywhere else for purchases. Generally this is where you will find the best prices and protection from a big company.
Others can be a bit more obscure. For example, a close friend has recently had heavy expenses and has stopped contributing to his 401k despite the employer benefit of matching his contribution to a certain amount. He has been using his salary to cover his expenses and consequently been leaving free money on the table by not digging in to his savings to cover the expenses instead. He SHOULD cover immediate expenses with savings and contribute the max that the employer will match using his salary, to the best extent that he can.
An unethical, degenerate one I've heard is walking into hotels around 9am and heading directly to the continental breakfast. Nobody asks questions and you have a free light meal.
Interested to hear if anybody has some to share.
