Might not be the right bowl. How do I get the most out of Venmo requests. Ex. If I go out to dinner my friend will put her card down and then Venmo request. Great for her she gets points. I’ve thought about using my CSR but I don’t know if it’s worth it

Put your card down instead and then send her a Venmo request

Let's say this leads to like $1000 of dinners on a card over a year. That's $30 for a 3% card. In other words, not enough to argue about (for me)

I always put my card down every time I go out or my friends and I book a trip and Venmo request people. I earn so many points from this it is totally worth it.

A lot of my friends have CSR. We basically rotate to make sure people get points kinda evenly.

An app called Tab helps with splitting large group bills. Take a photo and label what each person ordered

@PCW3 sure that's obnoxious, but I've had plenty of times where some people order $15 cocktails and others don't drink, then people suggest splitting the bill evenly. That's also not reasonable...

Ahh okay yeah I mean we’re all in the credit card points game ( ugh I hate having financial savvy friends 🙄🙄🙄😉). Just wanted to see if there was some loop hole eclectically for bigger purchases like trips and hotels

Plan trip with friends. Book whatever you can through Chase portal and get 5% back with CSP/CFU. Venmo friends. Win

I just got an email that Amex platinum Is waving the 3% fee to pay venmo with a credit card, haven’t tried it yet and that’s only helpful for Amex but

Just split the bill in half and everyone uses their card

Either let it go or make it a rule for your group to take turns on who puts down their credit card

My wife and I are moving to Boston from overseas (we’re from Italy and we’ve recently won the diversity visa green card lottery).

We are looking to rent a 1BR starting in January, ideally for ~$3k/month. I’ll be working in the downtown area.

Do you recommend we go for a serviced/luxury apartment (e.g. Montaje, 345 Harrison, etc.) or hire a broker to get a “normal” apartment?

Any managed buildings recommendations within our budget? Also, what are some good brokers we could work with?

Thanks!

The Current scenario of high attrition rates and job shift by taking multiple offers has been caused by a resource crunch in the market. However I have a feeling that this particular scenario of shifting jobs by way of multiple offers and getting high salary is creating a bubble in the market which will burst causing a ripple effect of lay offs due to cost saving efforts by organisations in the near future. In a scenario like this how can one change the job by avoiding the bubble?
