Flight canceled right before boarding for a crew issue and had to stay overnight for the next flight. Delta sent me 8k points this morning, should I call and ask for more?

I’m flying my mom to NY for the 2nd time from Taiwan for the birth of her first grandkid! I would love to upgrade her to business since she’s flying alone, doesn’t speak English, & hates flying. The only direct is EVA air. After researching, we think a good option is to use Chase points. My sister and I are combining our points but still short by a lot. Doesn’t look like we can buy Chase points, so wondering if anyone has any tips/hacks on how to get/buy more points?

So i have been fortunate that i have managed to go through my career without the need for a degree. I was lucky enough to have been hired by one of the worlds top consulting firms, worked with a whole lot of big clients and travelled a lot. It's gotten to the point where I am not even asked about the lack of a degree on my resume. Personally though, it bothers me. I have a whole bunch of certifications in my industry…but just no formal degree. (cont'd)

Only For MacBook Users -
I slightly dropped my MacBook and apparently (slightly) damaged the keyboard and trackpad as per service Center.

Are there any workaround for this? Like I can use external keyboard or maybe negotiate, anything else?
