How I Missed Out — Will This Crazy Deal Happen Again?
00:00:00.000 | In 2021, there was a absolutely crazy deal where if you donated money through
00:00:05.540 | Simply Miles to Conservation International, you got a whopping 240
00:00:12.060 | American miles per dollar, which effectively brought the price of
00:00:15.580 | American miles down to 0.42 cents.
00:00:18.360 | Which I think mainly by coincidence is the exact same price that they are
00:00:22.700 | valued for when you look at Basque Bank earning, but I think that's purely a
00:00:26.520 | coincidence. I think it's very easy to make American miles worth at least one
00:00:30.440 | cent, if not two cents or more.
00:00:32.440 | And so I personally know a handful of people who bought millions and millions
00:00:36.840 | of miles. I think if you spent $20,000 getting 240 American Airlines points per
00:00:42.820 | dollar, you would have ended up with 4.8 million American miles.
00:00:46.360 | Honestly, I wish I could go back in time and take advantage of this.
