Any recommendations on premium credit cards? I know of Amex platinum, Chase Sapphire. Right now I have Robinhood Gold Card which has the nice 3% on all purchases.

Feels like you need to look at the specific benefits and see which you can actually use. For me Chase is slightly better than Amex based on which services I have today

amex is most premium, get it to set the bar for other cards if u ever switch

There are a lot of things to compare. How relevant their lounge networks are for the airports you frequent. How well their credits are for usability in light of your spending patterns.

One other option you might consider is the Bank of America Premium Rewards Elite. It has a feature where the earning rates escalate as you hold assets at BOA, which includes index funds at their brokerage. If you hold over $100k there, and use the points on airfare, the net effect is earning 4.4% on travel and dining and 3.3% on everything else, a very high earning rate. The annual fee is $550, but $450 of it comes back with two very simple automatic credits on broad spending categories. And you get the full suite of Visa Infinite benefits. One weakness is that they do not have their own lounge network, but you do get a better Priority Pass membership than either of the other two.

Worth considering.

For me its Amex Plat - the card is fantastic

I’m considering building up my I bonds to eventually replace my 6 month expenses emergency savings account. Any downsides I’m not considering?

Thoughts?
