You got me going on these "cash back credit cards"--I have a big utility bill in the winter so this will be a nice little savings! Love your videos!

The irony of that Don't Buy It T-shirt is that I instantly wanted to buy it. I could totally see it making a splash on some hip, edgy young fashion designer's runway, too.

I use SDGE and I can prepay. I usually go 6 months and it works great for the 5% return. I've just starting using OhmConnect for a couple months now. I save some dollars. It all helps.

Thank you for the breakdown of such important information. We have must things we are locked into paying for so seeing how to put the credit back into our pockets is always helpful. Thanks again. #BeatTheBush

You are so brilliant

I got a targeted offer for my Prime Rewards Visa for 5% back on utilities through end of summer. Having a card that is 5% on utilities year round is huge though since that tends to be a larger monthly expense for most.

I appreciate the insights

Thanks for the video. Question; mortgage is a big bill that nobody takes payments using credit card, what can we do ta take advantage of the payment on getting a little cashback when paying our mortgage? what is the best way? I hope you make a video about this.

Good plan to pay in advance. Cash rewards for bills and utilities is very smart.

nice shirt to wear when shopping with the wife 🤣

Ok, I needed to watch this video with your awesome new tshirt yesterday, before I succumed to Amazon Prime Day. I really have a hard time with Amazon. I love that tshirt but I need to have it staring me in the face instead of wearing it - if that makes sense. Maybe a pop-up as I go to make an Amazon purchase! Or go to log onto that site!

You might find this entertaining. I wore this today and walked into a gas station. A guy saw me wearing this t-shirt without me noticing. I later overheard that because he saw my shirt, he decided to put back the cheetoes.

I always overpayed my electric. Never thought about using my credit card for water though. Cool!

What to do if your your total utility payments exceed about 5k per quarter?

I feel like if i pay any utilities in advance the company will think i have money to spare and squeeze in hidden charges and make my bill higher

Interesting..... What percentage of your overall budget does your utilities represent? 5%, 10%, or 15%? Assume utilities include electricity, gas, water, and trash only. No phone or internet or cable TV in utilities.

Or if you have 2 people in the Household, both the male and female (or both couples) get the US Bank Cash Plus and one person do Utilities and Internet and the other do cell phone and one other category of their choice.

There is a quartly max of $2,000 ($667 per month). Even with that limitation, no annual fee and 5% on utilities is huge deal.

I had one about that but then I didn't get much luck with it. I might have covered 5% utilities before but then there's always new updated info that I add. For this one, it is the intricacies of doing so.

It’s not 3.08% it’s more like 1.08% bc you would use the Citi Double Cash card anyway for 2%.

Hyper inflation, elites controlling housing market or just wealth in general, social engineering, millenials are to be a sacrificial generation and get royaly screwed by the filthy rich. 😌😩

So what was the recommendation on which card to use for 5% CB on utils all year? You said the USB Cash+ but then you said you don't like it because you have to pick your categories every quarter. So, is there another card?? Also, your calculation of 3.08% is very flawed. Your example of savings giving 2.57% apy is an annual rate. The 5% CB you'd get from paying your monthly bill is a monthly rate. In essence, getting 5% every month is essentially equal to a 60% APY! Or, you can look at the 2.57% apy as a 0.21% monthly yield. The 5% is 25x better. You're always better off taking the 5% even if that means prepaying and not keeping your money in savings, even if your savings account provided 5% apy. ;)

You can get pay your bills 🤪🤪

I'm confused--I thought that the cashback cards aren't taxed, because it's essentially a discount. Now the signup bonuses would be taxable. Am I missing something?
