I am 6 nights and $1500 spend away from hitting Ambassador. I don’t think Marriott will award Ambassador status as a courtesy but I am going to try. Otherwise as a fallback what do you suggest as reasonable alternatives to hit the threshold? Since I am that close I wanted to give it a shot. TIA

Unless there have been material changes to the program, I wouldn’t spend the extra cash out of my own pocket to hit Ambassador. That being said, I think you could hit the nights via one of the credit cards, but you may have to hit the spend requirement the hard way.

The only reason to get it is if you are traveling next year as well to increase your points multiplier

No points multiplier increase between Titanium and Ambassadors

I have an offer and want to negotiate

1. London base salary but I have to absorb all the expenses (train + stay)
I am thinking to negotiate to

2. home base salary and have my expenses paid for

I know that's depends on the amount I have to travel (and potentially stay) but at the moment this is unknown. Past 8 months was just twice a month + 2 nights stay.

The only thing I know is it won't be every week, the return trian ticket is about £80-100, depends I could plan ahead.

PHEV (specifically, RAV4 Prime) yay/nay?

Expected use case:
Family car
Low mileage (<10-11k / yr)
4-5 days a week expecting less 30 miles per day
Weekends 100-200 miles altogether (occasionally)
Rare road trip use (1x or 2x / yr; <300 miles one way)
Have garage (to charge at home)
