Just hit my 4 yr mark with the CSR and downgraded to the unlimited and have 100k UR points left over. Debating between these two options:
1. Reapply for CSR (80k offer) + Amex Gold (90k offer)
2. Apply for Amex Plat (150k offer and $200 credit) + CSP (80k referral)
Which would you recommend? I love the chase family, haven’t used Amex

2. Always go for the higher SUBs.

Chase > Amex for most things IMO. Earnings combos and redemptions tend to be better. Amex has better benefits and purchase protection though if that matters to you.

Do a MDD (modified double-dip) and get the CSR and CSP. Lots of tutorials online but essentially you would apply for 1 card, and 1 day after it’s approved apply for the second card. Card 2 must be approved on the same day you apply for the MDD to work, so make sure you call Recon if it’s not instantly approved

like

Whether you do CSR or CSP, just make sure you wait to apply until it's been at least four years to the date you got your last Sapphire SUB.

This. And To be clear, it is the date SUB posted not the day the card was approved!

I would choose CSP (In branch 95K)+ Amex Gold (90k +$200). Min annual fee (year 1, $295) great sign up bonus.

MDD the CSP and CSR since you can only get the bonus once every 4 years

Where is the CSR 80k offer? Can anyone share?
Looking to downgrade my CSP and go with CSR

I thought I saw a referral link with that offer, but I might be confusing it with the CSP

Is the Amex platinum still 150k SUB?

I got mailed that offer and i think some people may have referral links with that SUB, so worth asking around

Is it too late in our lives to jump into a mortgage?

So my fiancée and I are relatively late in terms of finally landing well paying jobs and being able to save money instead of living paycheck to paycheck. We’re both 36 and currently rent a 2 bedroom in NY and have a combined savings of $35,000 which she wants to use as a down payment on a condo. I kinda just wanna continue saving while renting. I also literally just started contributing to my 401K so I’m also late in the game for that too.

2 years out of undergrad and have a 758 credit score. Never missed a payment and was never late on one. How do I increase my available credit balance? It’s $10k on my card right now, I don’t need funds for anything, just would like to see it rise in case I ever do down the road.

Many people shared an advice on investing after contributing to max 401k, IRA, HSA. After paying off debt, invest the extra money.

I want to know when do you think is the time to stop contributing to HSA? We have insurances that can take care of majority of expenses. I am 31, married, with no kids yet, no major health issues.

Can anyone of you please help in calculating how much will be my income tax per month(I am availing the Old tax regime)? Different IT calculators show different figures, not sure which is correct :(

And as for the interest amount in the Savings Account and Fixed Deposits, do both fall under "Income from Interest"? Or under "Other Income"? Or does Interest amount in Savings account fall under "Interest from Deposits - 80TTA"?

The figures are given in the screenshot 👇🏻
