I’m interested in getting a new credit card. For reference, I am currently using Discover. I’m interested in AMEX. Any pros and cons would be greatly appreciated! Open to other recommendations, too

If you only have a discover card you might want to look into a visa or mastercard instead of Amex since discover and Amex are both higher fees to vendors and therefore are the two providers most likely to be rejected for use by small businesses

Have not had anyone in nyc ever reject my Amex

I’ve enjoyed my Amex platinum while living in the city because of the priority spots on Resy, exclusive access to the US Open, shows, etc. and they’re doing crazy sign up point bonuses at the moment.

Let me know you’d want a referral so you can get some extra points 😉

I love my Amex platinum. Have never gotten any shows deals, and gone to the US open lounge only 1x 3 years ago (last year’s lounge was oversubscribed they stopped accepting folks 2 hours before close). BUT - the centurion lounges are amazing (great food and dranks), the offers are good, delta lounge is helpful, and customer service is seamless

I am sure this is a question with an obvious answer, but does anyone else just feel absolutely trapped in a job they hate because of their student loans? I’m three years out of law school and I still have $160K in student debt despite making aggressive payments. I work in a larger firm (not big law per se, but 250+ attorneys and big for the market). I am pretty unhappy with my job the vast majority of the time, but I feel like I have no options. $160k at 6% and 7% interest cannot be ignored.
