I think I’m addicted to the pursuit of the SUB. I’ve got the AX Plat, AX Gold, AX BCP, CSP, Chase Ink Business Unlimited, Chase United Explorer, Chase Freedom, Hawaiian. Am over the 5/24, used points for a couple trips this year and have enough points to cover a few more trips. Does it ever end? How does one stop? 😭😬

Capital one venture x. As long as you enjoy it, the fees you pay for the cards make sense financially, you have the discretionary income, are able to meet your other financials and use it responsibly, it doesn’t have to end

Should’ve grabbed Ink Business Cash and Ink Business preferred before you went over 5/24 since they don’t count towards 5/24

At least now you know what to get next

No, it never stops. Rinse and repeat

Although I will say that over the years I’ve changed my strategy to be a good mix of SUB and daily spend leveraging. I’m not at the level of manufacturing spend, but the strategy of daily spend is pretty fun too and adds up quickly. Personally I like to throw at least 90 days between card apps and am currently on a pause until march when I am sub 5/24, so it gives me something to work on.
