Newbie... watching... learning

[Chief Wiggum]

Greetings All,

Newbie to the AFF forums. And to the game of seriousRewards chasing. Currently a lowly naive QF NB flyer but have started traveling more for work and personal in recent months and stumbled across AFF. Spending my time here between lurking and stickies (which sounds a bit wrong when you say it out loud )

First thing I quickly learnt was just how much I needed to learn. Learn to Earn is my new motto. It's all quite daunting at this point. I should hit QF PS in 2-3 months, but things like SG and WP seem like another world for other people from where I'm sitting now.

Finding it all very interesting, learning all the terms and acronyms (soooo many acronyms) . I figure if I'm going to be doing these things anyway... flights, car hire, hotels etc then I might as well get something back. And playing-the-game makes it fun

I'll try not to ask too many newbie questions as I'm sure everything I want to know has already been asked-and-answered within the AFF forum archives. But I may chime in from time to time if I think I can add something positive to the mix.

Thanks to all for the wonderful resource and community you've created.

Cheers Tim...

Welcome to AFF
I like your enthusiasm and attitude and agree its a great forum to learn.
Just remember "why fly direct when you can connect" and you'll be getting to your desired levels of status a lot sooner

Change is constant and therefore one really needs to learn constantly and timing is everything. Adapt to upgrade. Welcome to First.

When you stop learning is when it all gets boring....
