Cleaning up my CC portfolio and realized a card I want to close has had a negative points balance for like a year. Can I still cancel the card?

Yes you can but the question is why do you have negative points? That could have been an error on your part or on the banks part. I would find out before you close that card. You usually have a an amount of time after you close it to get those points cashed out.

Going through a closeout. 50-50 profit share allocation, but my business partner has been using the venture money at their personal piggy bank (hence the breakup). My accountants say because we agreed to 50-50 shares, the leftover money has to be divided equally.

They spent $100k in the last month on random "work stuff" but bought a new car, etc. Now I have to pay for it with less equity return!

Just wanted to rant, I'll probably never go into a partnership again.

Q to car gurus/experts- should I defer purchase/lease for 6 months? My logic, the impending recession will reduce demand and we will go back to more balanced market (lower prices with negotiation).
