🐠 I have a personal Amex Platinum and am switching to Amex for my biz card. I don’t want to pay for both as Platinum cards. Should I downgrade my personal and have Plat for biz? Some other option?

Check with AMEX, I know with my Corp Amex platinum, as long as the accounts are linked, the personal platinum gets fee waivers (don’t recall if a % or the total). It’s on the benefits page for the Corp card

My company covers the optional yearly fee to get the rewards. But I'm lowly green for biz.

A lot of the platinum benefits don’t exist for corporate cards so depending on what you use it for, you might want to keep your personal platinum. If it’s just lounge access, would suggest using the corporate platinum and downgrading your personal.

Question for folks with second homes: Considering buying a vacation home but would be primarily for family use.

If I were to buy the second home through an LLC, would that allow me to exceed that 750K since the expenses of the second home would be pass through expenses/income?
