Case study: Find all airline tickets I purchased

Dec. 14, 2018

Introduction


It is challenge for me to find all airline/ train tickets and how much I paid for last 20 year. I like to do this case study and figure out how hard it is to work on the task. One of goals is to train myself to keep all receipts and also write a log to document all expenses and explain to myself why I make the decision from the very beginning. I like to train myself to build a good habit to be true to myself, and also train myself to think, analyze, avoid impulsive thinking and purchase, even impulsive decision making.

Case study


I do not have good financial habit because I do not do book keeping and analysis every year starting from 1988.

Here are some ideas I can find to do such research. I can look up my gmail, hotmail and yahoo.com emails.

2006 June 6 Detriot GM interview - Fort Lauderdale - Detroit
2008 Feb. FLL - SHA - go back to China
2008 August 24 FLL to Seattle Microsoft interview
2009 May 9 FLL-CLT
2014 Aug 15 - 24 YVR-SFO
2014 Jan 26 - Feb 11 China vacation
2014 Oct 23 - Oct 28 YVR-FLL-Philadephia
2017 Oct 4 - Oct 20 YVR-Beijing-Shanghai
2018 April 12 - April 18 YVR-SHA

I still missed the tickets in 2012, 2015, 2016; I had a few trips from FLL to SHA in 1984, 2001, 2004. Two trips to New York, one trip to San Francisco, Las Vegas, one trip to San Diego, one trip to Washington DC, one trip to Smoky mountain.
