I honestly don’t travel much for work anymore (left consulting). I usually go with the cheapest airline out of Los Angeles when traveling for leisure. So don’t really have a specific airline I use the most.

The airline specific cards, outside of the sign up bonuses maybe, are some of the worst values for redemption. The best perks are the lounge access - you’re better off with the sapphire IMO as it allows for way more flexibility for personal travel.

I would never recommend keeping an airline card open past a year. Worth it for the signing bonus though, then you can cancel 8 months later

What airline do you fly the most? That’s the one to get.

Delta, usually 35k now 60k+ with targeted offers. I have a referral for 75k (I get 10k points also). It’s a $195 fee but you get a $100 statement credit for booking delta travel in the first three months, so effectively $95- if you know you have personal travel coming up

Dm me pls

My fiancé and I (ages 30 and 31) are about to buy a house. We would put down 10% for a 835k purchase price. Our combined income is $265k. We both have around 7-10k left in emergency funds (each) and combined about 200k for retirement. Our mortgage is $4,500 a month and we split a car payment for $800. Is this an okay financial decision or should we have bought a cheaper house/saved more?

My landlord will not work with me to end the lease early, so it looks like I will have to double up on rent and mortgage through the summer.

If I went on active duty orders, can I use those orders to break my lease early without penalty?

Im starting a new job but still employed somewhere else. I was trying to be open about staying at BOTH places. My current job won’t let me be part time because they don’t allow “set schedules”. Yet I am one of the only reliable and loyal employees in the department, and currently working a set schedule. So why will they not let me continue a set schedule but with different hours? This place is more focused on strict policies and not actually trying to work their employees and being flexible.
