Most of the mid tier to high end credit cards have no foreign transaction fees. Do you fly any specific airline mostly? What kinds of points do you want to earn? What do you buy a lot of?

It’s all based on what you want to do with those points.

For travel, you need to look at the travel partners, i.e. of the big 3 airlines AMEX partners with Delta and Chase partners with United. Same goes for hotels.

I personally have both Chase Sapphire and AMEX because my wife and I spend enough that we can justify the annual fees through travel redemptions.

Amex Gold probably.

We are moving from Vegas to Sacramento and we are not sure how long we would stay in the new area. Thoughts?

Transactional associate. Lateraled 6 months ago and one of the biggest pain points has been my new firm’s inclination to “hop on a call”, which of course requires every single stakeholder to join. The end result being every call has 25 people on it and nothing actually gets done because no one wants to ask a question that could come off as silly. It’s destroying my ability to get anything done during the day. It’s a complete performance and it drives me nuts.
