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.

Completely and totally miserable at my firm and just need a space to vent because my friends are tired of hearing about it. I wish the worst part about it was the amount of work, rather than the completely toxic culture, lack of appreciation, arbitrary and back/breaking deadlines, lack of mentorship/feedback/training, and the fact that the associates act like they don’t even know each other. I cry every day and constantly am made to feel stupid for not understanding the highly technical (cont.)
