I am planning to cancel my Amex Gold and am wondering what is the best redemption in terms of value for my Amex points before I close the account? Any thoughts? Thank you in advance.

I was dumb and just used the Amex travel website which is like the worst redemption

Amex just put out a bunch of transfer bonuses for September.

I also go to the points guy for tips and ideas

Just get a no fee card and keep the points

Would do BBP if you can - have no problem opening business cards with no real business

I’m really discouraged. My after tax / after 401k contributions etc. take home pay is $6,500 monthly. I have $60,000 in savings / stocks for a down payment but even looking at a $550,000 home, my monthly payment would be about $3,400 from the calculators I’ve been using. Is that too high?

So discouraged that houses where I live are about 50% higher than what they were 2 years ago, and now interest rates are around 5.25% for my credit score. This is like a 1750 sq foot home
