Recently got the Amex blue cash preferred card with 6% cash back on groceries.

How is this applied? I can't seem to figure if the money is coming off statements automatically or if I have to do something to gain the value.

Also whats the easiest way to see how much you've earned from this?

I'm finding Amex hard to navigate

Hi friends! I’m planning on moving in with my long term boyfriend. He makes about 60-70k and I make 105k. Originally I was going to split rent equally but the feminist in me says it should be split based on income. Have you all been in a similar position and what was your decision?

Product Design Engineer, interviewing at Apple (Cupertino) and at Meta (Seattle/Redmond). Not at the offer stage yet, but I'm contemplating where I would relocate with family.
No idea about team/culture/stability differences yet.

The non-work factors I'm debating are:
1. Cost-of-living (housing!). Could probably afford a nice ~$1.25M SFH in Seattle suburbs sooner than a fair $1.5-2M near Cupertino.
2. Public School quality. Unsure private will be affordable.
3. Weather/region: activities
