Is the chase sapphire reserve worth it vs the preferred? I see all the comparisons online but still not convinced the extra fees are worth it. Would love thoughts/help!

Do the math. The card that is better for you really depends on your own spending and redemption plans. There are plenty of spreadsheets available online that can help you do the comparison if you don't want to build it out yourself.

Between travel credit, dash pass etc I feel the cost is worth it. They did a nice job pivoting benefits in the pandemic so think they are trying to run it well for the mobile jet set type. Points are good complement with hotel/airline miles. Service is great, I had them overnight a replacement card while I was in Central Asia, got there in less than 2 days

The travel credit is worth it, but csp has higher bonus right now. You can always get csr after 4 yrs or upgrade after one year

CSR has been amazing based on my spending, but, as others said, it depends on YOUR spending. Just do the math and it'll take you what to do.

Personally CSP is better bang for buck for me but if you travel a lot, CSR would probably be better. They did raise the annual fee tho by $100

It’s 100% been worth it for me due to the travel credit ($300), free dash pass (probably saved $500 this year), and benefits like 3 free months of peloton service ($39x3). Then the points rack up fast as well.

Adverse selection is a huge issue in trading. You never have perfect information and your decision won’t be perfect for the outcome. This usually means you’re too small in winners and too large in losers.

As markets crash we’re seeing something similar. People are ignoring bad outcomes when they should be working that much harder to protect previous gains and find new ideas. Lower traffic in this thread is a symptom of this phenomenon. Don’t quit just as the value of incremental effort ramps.

Anyone know when Ch. 7 BKs must close by? Is this changed by when there are adversary proceedings (alleged fraudulent transfers made to a bank for CC payments)? Asking for my friend who is unfortunately involved bc of his parents, who are the debtors (he isn’t a defendant or a debtor in this, but the payments were made to a CC in his name—a CC he didnt know was opened in his name).

Its in Texas, and the initial BK filing was made about 23 months ago. TIA!
