I’ve gotten really good value transferring to Hyatt for hotel stays... 400$/night hotels for 15k points

Transferring to travel partners is typically the best way to maximize value, but obviously the feasibility of doing that for a specific redemption is limited right now. I’d hold for now though if you do need to burn, 1.5 cpp is what you’re gonna max out at

Nope

Just got the CSR. What is the 1.5x credit you speak of?

Just did this today. If you pay yourself back on the purchases where they issued Door Dash credit or travel credit, you're double dipping 🙂 It's called "Pay Yourself Back" on their website/app.

Not sure how good the value is, but you can connect your card for Amazon and spend points there

Nope, terrible value there. You’re better off just doing cash back at that point

Question about inclusion…. I’ve been teaching inclusion for 5 years so I’m still a newb, but a first year coworker of mine said she got points off on her observation because her kids were scattered in the classroom and she was having to move from kid to kid to assist. While I see the point of putting them together for convenience, I don’t agree with this at all! To me this is like singling them out by putting them all together instead of INCLUDED amongst peers. What do y’all think?

I'm under contract for a new build in progress that won't be done until much later this year. I fully expect interest rates will be higher than what I originally estimated. I may or may not try to lock in a good rate early, but I'm planning on renting it out and this throws a bit if a wrench in my margins. I can take it financially, but wondering, If I absolutely needed to get out of buying it, what recourse do I have? Or could I go ahead, and refinance later (who knows rates at that time...)?

I’m 26 and have a fair chunk of my NW tied to Cloudflare - a tech stock that I believe has the opportunity to 3x and become a $100b+ company over the long term. Similarly, I have a lot in cloud computing etf - WCLD.

Given short term rotation out of growth stocks, I’m confused on what to do. I think we still have some time before growth stocks bottom out, but do I sell?

I would consider myself a “long only” investor, but am unsure what to do given my lack of diversif
