Why Microsoft Rewards Helped Inspire Me to Start Cash Boner

Are the "why" titles getting tiring? I am not doing it on purpose, I just want to title these something that explains what the article is for. Gosh, I can see why I transitioned to mostly YouTube haha. Regardless, Microsoft Rewards has been around for quite a while, and it pays out generously in many ways.

I joined Microsoft Rewards many years ago. The gist of it is Microsoft wants you to use Bing, and is willing to pay you to do it. At least that's what I've thought, but considering how long it's been going, I may be wrong. Either way, it is very rewarding considering how much you can get and the little effort it takes to earn rewards. I used to redeem Starbucks Gift Cards, and would email them at random times to my then-girlfriend now-wife(to show I was thinking about her, major brownie points for it being free). For the last few years, I've used Microsoft Rewards to get my Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription for free.

Why did this inspire me though? Because I would hear of people paying for the subscription, and would see friends and others buying gift cards I would regularly get for free through almost no effort. I would think "why"? Everyone should do this! Microsoft Rewards offers Amazon, Target, Starbucks and other gift cards. I find it highly unlikely there isn't something in that list that would appeal to everyone. As you can see in the image above, I have earned 651,207 points to date. A $5 gift card is 5,500 points so...yeah, more than $600 worth of stuff. Xbox Game Pass is worth more than that, but still. If you're not a member, get on it. It is free, no referrals needed, and there are several guides on YouTube on how to earn points fast. Some made by that Cash Boner guy...such a scumbag.

Get boning!
