Travel very frequently (2-3x per month) and am remote with flexible work arrangement.

Between Capital One Venture X and AmEx Platinum. Which would you pick? The sign up bonus is equal but AmEx perks seem better.

Also don’t know if it’s better to just get the Delta Credit Card and get status. That said, I only like to use one card. I already have Chase and I’m not impressed. Open to other suggestions. Looking for a card with great points travel redemption for flights (primarily).

Capital One Venture X. DM for referral if interested.
Great sign on referral promo right now, also get back $300 in statement credits for flights per year + $100 in points each year along with travel benefits like trip delay or cancellation protection, cell phone protection, price drop protection, luggage reimbursement, free lounge access, Hertz status, etc.
10x on hotels, 5x on flights, 2x on everything else $395 annual fee - get back $400 in statement credits plus additional benefits each year

I personally wouldn’t use all Amex platinum benefits to justify paying the annual fee on that

If you only want to use one card for everything, then the Venture X is better. You get 2X back on everything vs 1X on the Platinum (not including any travel portal multipliers).

If your home airport is a Delta hub or has a Centurion/Escape lounge, then consider getting both cards, having the Venture X in your wallet for all spending, and keeping the Platinum in your sock drawer for the access to lounges and any other benefits on the card you’ll utilize.

Thank you both! Super helpful!!!!

Has anyone ever heard of this type of real estate private equity fund structure:

-One LLC, so only one PPM

-Multiple investments that investors can determine whether or not they want to invest in
-One K-1 per investor based on their investments and income
-Ability for the Sponsor/Fund to invest directly, indirectly and in equity, debt, Pref, etc.
To me this seems extremely cumbersome and would require multiple classes of (cont’d)
