I just started a year long assignment and the city I am in has a Hilton, Marriott, Hyatt, and Sheraton. Which hotel chain should I rack up points with?

Funny enough, Hyatt has the biggest ROI.

I'm a United loyalist, so I always stay at full service Marriotts and credit the points to Milageplus (2 milageplus pts/dollar spent) and stack that with CSP card (3 pts/dollar spent on hotels) and transfer my Chase points into Milageplus as well.

Probably Marriott

Why not SPH/Sheraton if SPG is the more valuable of the two companies in the merger?

Hyatt, best kept secret among road warriors.

If one stay at Sheraton gives you less than 33% of points one stay at Marriott would give you, spg points are not more valuable for your purpose.

Hyatt

@PwC1, isn't a SPG point worth 3 Marriott points?

Need advice. Have some credit card debt that I’ve been working to pay off. Have made progress but want to lower it quickly. We have dual income, with a house (~$300k in equity), 1 kid and 1 on the way. I’ve looked into debt consolidation via HELOC but also have ~$80k in vested equity in my company that I haven’t touched. Get equity refreshes every year. Would it be smarter to cash out $15k-$20k of that to pay debt vs. a HELOC at ~5% given that will still require mthly payments

Hi there!
I completed the last round of an interview (presentation) last week. Originally they said they would be calling my references & then make an offer accordingly.
Today they updated that they'd like me to travel to their HQ (based in Nordics & I'm in London) for the final round where I'd meet the CEO, the hiring manager and a couple of people in the team.
I don't think I'm the only one in the process - even though initially the last round was the presentation.
What are your thoughts?

One of your roommates (and a close friend that you’ve known for years) has a flight to catch. He has a suitcase, a duffle bag (no wheels), and a backpack. In order for him to get to the airport would you:

A) offer to drive him to the airport that’s about .5 miles away (5 minute drive)

B) tell him to order an Uber since you know his work would pay for it

C) tell him to not be lazy and walk half a mile to the nearest public transportation stop, with all that luggage, and take public transit
