MD1 Sign up for the Charles Schwab Amex Platinum. Cashes all your Amex points out at 1.25 cents per point directly to a Schwab investment account

Shit I just saw that my annual fee is going to $250 a year now. Some cool new additions but not sure if it’s worth it. Might be time to upgrade to Amex Plat

Just signed up for the card. Will go well in combo with Amex Plat. πŸ‘ πŸ‘

D1. will check that out!

πŸ’³Credit card helpπŸ’³ Starting a new job in two weeks. The new company does not give a corporate card, so I get to pick my own. If things were normal and I was traveling / spending as usual, getting the CSR or AMEX platinum would make sense. But with things the way they are, what should I do? Work related expenses will be minimal, but Im moving/furnishing an apartment so personal spend will be decent. TIA!

I have been searching for a travel card for months. I am a young guy who is looking to take advantage of credit and earn points at the same time. Cap One just released an interesting new premium travel card with a lot of seemingly good perks (Venture X). I also looked at the CSP and the Southwest Priority card. My girlfriends family has Southwest and swear by it, with companion pass being the differentiator. I am in the DMV area and have mostly flown Jet Blue or Southwest. Any thoughts on this?

Instead, they have decided to pursue program manager or cloud consultant roles, which they feel might have a lower barrier to entry from an assessment standpoint. Not sure if the bowl agrees but would like to get your thoughts, thanks!

It does have potential for a great case and I’d love to have it in my portfolio, but is it reasonable for them not to compensate me? Any tips on how to approach this?
