Been in the States for 2 years, finally have long enough credit history. Currently only have an HSBC Premiere credit card, and looking to get another credit card for me. Which one is the most favorable now? Hubby has HSBC, Amazon credit card, and Chase. We travel a lot internationally (for work and private), quite big spenders on airbnbs, flight tickets, hotels. What would you recommend? Thanks!

Capital One Venture X. The points you accumulate on it actually work better on international flights. Or the Amex Platinum card which can transfer points directly to Delta.

like

Chase sapphire reserve.
Also look into the chase trifecta.

This may be convenient since you already have a chase relationship.

like

Chase Sapphire Reserve/Preferred and/or Capital One Venture X.

I have the Chase trifecta (Freedom Unlimited + Freedom Flex + Reserve; will add Inks once I'm below 5/24) and Cap One duo (Savor One + VX). Combine all points for max value.

I suggest you follow a couple different Facebook groups, there’s a lot of excellent info on how to start your points journey.
Travel on Points
And
10XTravel
They both recommend starting out with Chase, either sapphire reserve or preferred.

The barrier to entry is low, not even sure if graduating high school is needed. My old agent even said she did it bc she can make a lot money and not work that much. She drove a new Mercedes and sent her kids to private school, husband was also an agent.

So I’m curious why it didn’t get flooded and the profit margin dampened to a $/hr closer to other jobs with similarly easy entry?
