Does Amex reduce the $550 Annual fee for Platinum upon request?

All of the robo-advisors I’ve seen invest in low cost ETFs. Are there any that invest in individual stocks? It feels like this would be much more effective at tax loss harvesting because it would de-average the holdings within each ETF. I’m going to have large capital gains next year and I’m looking for ways to offset.

I’ve been thinking about getting into real estate investing. Not right now but later down the road. I’ve been trying to save up for a down payment. What are some good resources for a beginner? Blogs, YouTube, books etc I’m not looking for paid courses because I will be learning at a slow pace. Any help will be appreciated.

Alright this bowl has convinced me I need to buy a Rolex. Where do I begin? I know my brother got a Batman GMT after about a year at a jeweler he never purchased from a few years ago, but was he just lucky? Do I need a relationship with an AD in today’s market for a Sub or GMT? Based in Seattle but would prefer to buy in Oregon to avoid taxes

Google onsite to HC rate? Is it around 50%? Do you need to get 3 leaning hires to make it to HC?

I'm about to start my first travel case. SPG or Accor?

Will end up at 65 Marriott nights for 2018. What would you select for your annual choice benefit? 5 elite night credits or is that pointless?

Need 6 Marriott nights to titanium (spend doesn’t matter). 1 - would any hotel manager cut you a deal? (Ie if 6 nights is 60k; let me pay 30k and get the nights and I won’t use the room?); 2 - where are cheapest Marriott hotels? I found 10k per night in burbs of Chicago? 3 - would any cheap Marriott let me run this scam remotely? (Ie call Abilene Texas, check me in without my showing up)

Has anyone tried to sell miles or points through one a site. I have a family member looking to do it and I had never looked into. Any experiences? Pros cons

Have a big upcoming international trip and trying to choose between the Marriott convoy boundless credit card or the chase sapphire preferred card to not have foreign transaction fees. Anyone have any experience with either and can help tip the scales one way or another?

On a credit file, do multiple credit cards from the same issue count as multiple accounts or is that issuer counted as a single account regardless of how many cards

How do you ask for points?

Traveling to DC for 4 days. Looking for Marriott with parking and maybe concierge lounge functioning. Anyone use a Marriott recently they can recommend?
Open to other suggestions too. Thanks

Beginner here. I'm trying to use my points to buy a flight to Puerto Rico. If Delta costs me 55k points on my Amex (valued at $600 per Points Guy), versus United which costs me 60k points (valued at $700), shouldn't I still just go with the Delta cause I'm spending less points?

Anyone have a special platinum Marriott support number or contact person to resolve a lingering issue?

Received an offer to upgrade my Amex Everyday to an Everyday Preferred for 40k points. Is that considered a good offer? And if I do upgrade, will it count towards 5/24?

Would you rather have 5x amex MR points or 3x chase UR points for each dollar spent on flights? Why? Company let's me book flights on personal cards and trying to decide which to choose.

For CSP/CSR, does the person getting referred get anything other than the public offer?

Thoughts on the best domestic mileage program? Any recommendations for someone also potentially using those miles for international redemptions?

Has anyone been offered a status buy-up for 2021. ~$1700 short of United 1k this year and think my travel will increase a good bit starting next year. Think it could make sense, especially given the 2021 thresholds
