I know this question has been asked here before but for Chase Sapphire Preferred Card would the 100k bonus point come back anytime soon?
Also it says here 750$ towards travel. So does that mean the 60k bonus points I can use only for travel?

Chase UR can be redeemed for a penny, transferred to partners, or redeemed on their travel portal for a bonus 25%. I think best value is transfer or at least has been historically but you can also just get a $600 statement credit if you prefer simplicity over optimizing value.

As for if/when that particular bonus will come back who knows. They seem to start sapphire promotions in March so maybe you'll get a better offer then buy doubt they will regularly offer >$1k SUB on a $95AF card.

The best value for UR to me has been in redeeming for United miles to buy international flights at short notice. Cash prices, even with the 25% bonus, dont come close to the price with miles. I suspect that if I buy tickets far out in the future then the 25% bonus would end up being a better bet but my plans are rarely that definite so much in advance.

Hello,

Currently, in accenture. I have had very bad billable hours and not much achievement this fiscal year. I am worried of getting fired, so i applied for another job. Got offered may be 5% above my current pay with 5k bonus, but in lower level at Deloitte. I think working lower level will give me more opportunities to learn as i think i have lot to learn. I made decision based on my gut and accepted the offer. I have not talked to anyone on accenture side yet. What you think?

Also open to “you should hire a financial advisor, etc..”

Is there any realistic way where tipping in the US goes away and we start to be like other countries (e.g. Europe/Asia)? Raise the price of the food, pay servers a fair wage, no tips? Just a dream 😅

I'm guessing no because businesses will fight hard against this (customers subsidize wages) and certain servers benefit from tipping as well.

Only other thing I can think of is if everyone collectively decides not to ever tip again and it forces business to change. Won't happen though.
