How I Got My First American Express Card

How I Got My First American Express Card

When I was 22, a shiny new credit card landed in my wallet, boasting a $10,000 credit limit that mirrored my financial prowess. That card was more than plastic; it was the key to a kingdom of miles, points, and Elite status that has guided my journey to where I am today. Welcome to Walk to Wealth, where I, John Mendez, pull back the curtain on my credit card saga that led to a score above 760 and a cache of travel perks. From my first heady dip into the world of credit to achieving Marriott Bonvoy Elite status, I share the strategies that turned a rejected Delta Gold card into a stepping stone toward the coveted MX Platinum card. 

Buckle up for an epic finale as I lay bare the top-tier tactics that crowned me half a million points richer by the tender age of 21. This isn't just about racking up digits; it's about fostering the financial literacy that can turn dreams into boarding passes. If you're seeking the blueprint to navigate the labyrinth of credit systems and emerge victorious with a trove of rewards, this is your masterclass.
