DM’d you for the capital one venture x. I’ll split my referral bonus with you.

Depends on the airports you fly out of and some of your spending habits. Venture X is pretty easy to turn in to a free card. Amex Platinum requires a bit more work but could easily pay for itself if you’re in the right cities + have certain spending habits.

Don’t have an offer for either of the above and I believe the >75k c1 offer is no longer out there as of a few weeks ago. Happy hunting tho & happy to help game out what’s cards might make best sense for your situation

I wish I wasn’t adaptable. Humans aspire for a greater level of comfort and once achieved, adopt that as their new baseline.
