About a few months ago, I got a Bank of America - American Express Credit card. The card has a rewards program. So basically, every time I spend a dollar, they give me a point. At some merchants, they give several points per dollar and so on. I recently bought a pair of Nike shoes for 50$ and I got 350 points for it.
Once you have your points, you can redeem it for really cool stuff. American Express gives me access to a LOT of stuff. For instance, I can fly in one of their private jets with a friend for about 50,000 points. I can get an iPod for 10,000 points. These are alright, but the best part is yet to come. When you have a girlfriend, the girl expects you to buy her flowers, necklaces, remember anniversaries and so on. You can easily redeem these points for such stuff. You can automatically have Amex send her stuff on her birthday, anniversary and so on. And you don't even have to remember it. As far as necklaces go, they are so beautiful. I had once designed a necklace for my girlfriend with a heart and our names on it. I roamed all over south India to get someone to make it for me. The smallest quote I got was 2 lakhs INR. A bit too much for someone who earned $70 a month. I saw a necklace to similar to that on AmEx's collection. Of course I dint have our names on it, but it was pretty much every thing that I wanted. With Swarovski Crystals all over around the other edges of the heart. The heart itself was made of sterling silver. Even the materials matched my design. It was beautiful.
Considering you are a total romantic, and you buy flowers for your girlfriend pretty often, think of how this will save you. I once bought a set of 24 roses or something for valentine and it cost me $70 (one month's salary for me back then). I could have gotten that for free now. I learnt about the power of AmEx too late... It does save you a couple of bucks here and there. Makes me want to sing
"My chick could have what she want
And goin every store for any bag she want
And know she ain't never had a man like that
To buy you anything ya heart desire like that"
I think the problem with love is that you take stuff for granted at some point, I never thought I needed to reinforce my love. This is true of any love. Be it with your girlfriend, or family, or even friends for that matter. You need to put time and effort into relationships for them to work. You need to be there, and I mean "literally".
