Is it worth having a delta credit card to get at least to silver status? I already got my chase sapphire bonus and downgraded the card. I currently have amex platinum and gold as well as hyatt credit card. What should be next?

If you’re asking for which card to open, I recommend Capital One Venture X. DM for referral if interested.
Great sign on referral promo right now, also get back $300 in statement credits for flights per year + $100 in points each year along with travel benefits like trip delay or cancellation protection, cell phone protection, price drop protection, luggage reimbursement, free lounge access, Hertz status, etc.
10x on hotels, 5x on flights, 2x on everything else $395 annual fee - get back $400 in statement credits plus additional benefits each year for a gain of $5 to you. No FX fee on any capital one credit cards either.

I opened it since the card basically pays for itself, but makes sense if that’s important to you. I’m also churning for the sign on offer bonus

If you have Amex platinum don’t bother with delta cards

I have 2 of the Delta credit cards (one is the platinum) but turns out the one I really want is the purple one. I am going to try to switch.

It turns out the credit card did not boost my status at all. I still had to get 25,000 miles this year to get to Silver. I felt like I was duped a bit with the card.

Cash

Holy fuck that’s a lot of credit cards. I have one that collects dust as my emergencies only card

Delta reserve has a good sign on bonus offer going on. Can refer.

Does anyone have any advice on investing in the LI area (best location, SFH v MFH) or just general first time rental property buying advice?

Thanks all
