MS?

If you can pull off 600K points a month doing MO when the max 5x on biz cards is capped at 25K annual spend, I certainly have a lot to learn from you! For grocery spend, I personally prefer Amex gold for the 4x. And for the buying group, I certainly prefer chase amazon which gives 5% cashback, not UR.

Any fear of being shut down by Chase? Also, do you actually transfer these points out to partners or just cash out? I'd be nervous having that much in points via MS.

Always a risk. The more you MS, higher the chance of a shutdown. I do a mixture of both, cash out and transfer to primarily UA and Hyatt

How??

Spend time reading about MS on google, reddit, flyer talk. Once you have the basics down, happy to talk and exchange ideas

WTH did you buy lol

What’s the net gain from your strat (ex-fees)? There’s no way you’re netting 600k in points without sizable shrinkage.

Hi Everyone, I have been an HR Generalist for close to 7 years. I had good managers and poor managers in between.

I really enjoy being a Generalist but I don’t know if I want to be an HR Manager. Any suggestions on other areas of HR I should consider?

Whom you surround yourself with is a choice, just like everything else in your life.

Don't underestimate the strength you can gain from having the right people by your side who genuinely support you through good times and bad. You shouldn't make space for people who bring constant negativity.

I still have a 35k Marriott free night set to expire 6/30 if anyone wants it. I have titanium status so it should also come with free breakfast and a pretty good upgrade chance (especially if it’s only a one night stay). Let me know if anyone wants to buy at a discount, would much rather see someone use it then it go to waste.
