An Invite To A Private Caribbean Island? Sign Me Up! Oct 27, 2021

Show notes

I've had some crazy travel experiences over the years but spending a weekend on a private island was honestly never something I thought I would achieve.

Then, out of left field Richard Kerr invited me to spend the weekend on Moskito Island, a private island owned by Sir Richard Branson in the British Virgin Islands.

International travel is messy right now and we cover all the hoops we had to jump through on this adventure.

We also talk about my application for the Bilt Rewards Mastercard and why it may just be the best no-fee credit card out there right now.

If you're thinking about signing up for the Bilt Rewards Mastercard, use code PIM4BILT to skip the waitlist.

Note: I don't earn a penny if you sign up for the Bilt Rewards Mastercard. I did visit their private island but paid my own way to get there. TLDR, sign up for the Bilt card because I think it's great, not because I'm earning money by you signing up.
