Kind of disappointed with Marriott Bonvoy. Redeeming points is so expensive relative to how long it takes to earn them. Also it doesn’t sound like free nights are easily accessible without a Marriott cc.

Is Hilton any better?

Why do you consult? Because It’s God’s chosen profession? Because it’s better to be upper middle class than anything else? Because you’re passionate about the art of recommending real world strategies that came to you in a Hilton night excel fever dream?

What is the most amount of times you have Applied to one specific company? It could be different job titles and different states but how many times have you applied to the same company?

The thing about being a lawyer. I grew up not quite poor, but certainly in tough conditions.

I spend all my time traveling. Frequent flyer miles paid for the plane, hilton points for the hotel, rental days for the car.
