Only bad if you fly through London. Can also use it to fly domestically on AA pretty cheaply.

J/F is the way to go, too many to list here

Doesn’t seem like you have done any research at all.

So basically I was trying to transfer to British airways and they hit me with huge amount of fuel charges and it’s cheaper just buy from google flight. And I was trying to transfer to Canada airline it’s just same as I bought from good airline

Avios are best used for AA short haul domestic

If you transfer to Aeroplan several options with no fuel surcharges: United, Turkish, Air China, Air India, ANA to name a few.

If you travel to BA: AA, Qatar, Etihad to name a few

I travel to India business class and usually get $0.04 - $0.06 cpp

Mega backdoor question - I wanted to take advantage of this while it still existed so I contributed to after tax 401k the last few paychecks. Is the correct process to do a withdrawal/rollover directly to my Roth IRA account? It seems like I can do a direct deposit from the 401k but it is asking if this is a checking or savings account which seems wrong.

I'm a SWE from Italy. Love my country but salary and taxes here are outrageous. Got 2yrs experience in fullstack and data science, 2masters, a peer reviewed paper and outperform all my peers for 24k€ a year.

Have you got some advice? Is it possible to work for US remotely without visa? What other countries pay well? Is it possible to land a 100k$+ with this kind of experience and working from Italy?

So I’m nearly 4 years into my career and began making $100k this year as a social media buyer. While this is a lot of money as a 27 year old, my current job function is not challenging at all. My workload is also extremely light. While this may be an enviable situation for some, I’m worried my career is going nowhere. The account I’m on is the same one I’ve been on for more than 2 years and I’ve already asked off without luck. Has anyone else experienced a lack of challenge in their job role?
