“Venture capital” 😭

likefunny

Venture capital will probably have the most financial backing

Toys R Us preferred card. 🤫 but seriously just depends of your choice of transfer partners

And which would advise if you had to pick one?

like

That’s up to you based on the other cards you have, your spending categories, and transfer partners you value most. Nobody can advise on what suits your specific situation

Depends on your setup

I primarily use BILT plat (mortgage and 3x everything cause I boost it with the BILT cash)

I use Sapphire Preferred for food out, parking/tolls, and grocery pickup at Whole Foods

I use Cap1 VX for price matching hotels (when I can’t transfer Chase/BILT points to a good Hyatt), booking flights for the travel portal insurance that’s saved me several times, and the primary rental car coverage

Happy to offer referrals for any :)

I joined a new consulting firm and have been here for 6 months. Recently, a SaaS client (1k employees) that hired my old consulting firm reached out to me about a job opening - Lead BA working primarily to implement their benefit admin system for insurance companies. My current TC is 95k. Is it worth making the jump if the offer is north of 110k? Anything I should look out for? The client and coworkers were all nice, but I remember being stressed on the project due to limited resources.

Hi All, just sharing what on mind to vent it out from my system. Maybe with this I could gain some insights and inspiration.
I have been working as a data scientist since 2018 & have been the bread winner. I have neither been under a proper mentor nor with a team of peers from my field to help me out. I was alone and confused. I have never really got the chance to prove myself which makes me all the more depressed. I'm not sure what to do with my future, indecisive and low on confidence.

💳Credit card help💳 Starting a new job in two weeks. The new company does not give a corporate card, so I get to pick my own. If things were normal and I was traveling / spending as usual, getting the CSR or AMEX platinum would make sense. But with things the way they are, what should I do? Work related expenses will be minimal, but Im moving/furnishing an apartment so personal spend will be decent. TIA!
