Get the SPG Amex if you don't already have one... they usually have ~25k signup bonuses
Step1: Sign-Up SPG Amex Step2: Spend 3k to get 25k points Step3: refer someone and get 5k
Tell them you got AIDS from one of their toilets.
No one said anything about getting status with points.
SC1, your input is pointless. I am already platinum but I use my points often and am going to PR in October and would like to use points rather than pay $1200/night. Lastly, if you've been keeping up with FB at all lately, consulting work / projects are not readily available for me to just tell my mgr - sorry bro, I don't want this project, let me stay on the beach another month waiting for a travel project. For everyone else with helpful comments, I thank you - they will help me in having a very enjoyable vacation. Cheers
Convert Amex Membership Rewards to SPG points (exchange is 1000 MR / 333 SPG). It's not great but it would work in a pinch.
ok first of all, spg status is conferred via number of stays/number of nights, u need either 25 stays or 50 nights for plat. counting points is for cucks. just book shorter stays at multiple hotels if ur really desperate, otherwise ask ur boss to get on a travelling engagement
Also note that you can transfer points between members in the same household. So a friend can also get an SPG account at your address, then get the Amex SPG card and bonus, then transfer to you.
If you have a generous SPG friend, have them book the room for you and add your name to the reservation. Then you don't have to go thru the trouble of transferring points. This is how I gift points to my family.

I think the best bet would be to get the Amex, use a service like plastiq (assuming they process Amex - only used visa with them) to pay a few large expenses to hit the spend limit. If the 3k spend is on top of the 25k bonus that puts you at 88k. Transfer the remainder using points from your work Amex.

s& u mad bro? that was a pretty long response i didnt read 😊
P2, that will most likely end up being what I do. I was don't like that I have to get a new CC just for this, it seems wasteful, but also, there is a $95 yearly fee which sucks, but I would still be saving money paying $95 a year rather than $1k for 1 night. I guess I can cancel after a couple years if need be.
