Any drawback to getting the United Club card and downgrading it in the future? Just got a first-year-waived promotion, but not sure what fee-free card I could downgrade to eventually

I got the UA Club card with the Annual Fee waived last year. It has definitely been amazing this year

I did what you described and didn’t have any issues. Free United club access for a year, basically

Were you all targeted by email? Want that card but not sure it's worth it with the fee.

To those of you who got the same promotion, did you still get the 50,000 sign up bonus after spending $3k in the first 3 months?

@Huron nope, did not get that offer, only annual fee waived

Jumped on that same offer few months ago. Definitely will look to downgrade or cancel. United lounges aren't very good even in Chicago...

For any of you real estate investors, what tools or sources did you learn from when getting started. Can’t find a mentor currently so want to find some highly recommended books or videos.

My hope is to buy and rent out a apartment while also owning a house and house hacking that by renting part of it out. Trying to understand all the steps, traps, and how to find if it’s a good investment.
