It is to me bc of 10x Lyft points. I travel now so I get a lot of value from it

Depends on a person and their spending habits?!

no not for me.

It is if you still spend a lot on food/travel, or you have a ton of points saved up. I am keeping mine for the near future.

I no longer travel for work, so I'm on the fence about cashing out my 200k points for 1.5c each now, closing the account and restarting with sapphire preferred.

I had called chase last week and was told even after 4 years, I would never be eligible for another bonus. Was that not correct?

It isn’t for me anymore so I switched to AMEX Gold. Going to cash out on points and then switch to Preferred when my term is up.

Ah, gotcha. A long time!

Called Chase and was able to maintain the annual fee at $450

Last year when they announced the $550 I called and they mentioned I was grandfathered in at $450 since I have held the card for 5 years. Called earlier this month and confirmed $450.

It’s hard to trust the partners/leadership when they want us to return to office as being better when we increase offshoring? Also, the pressure on billable hours when all that really matters is how much our fixed labor costs vs. how much we can bill (which is usually fixed fee or at least a range) and the fixed labor costs of offshoring is significantly cheaper so the hours don’t matter. Am I mistaken by this viewpoint?
