I don’t think you get most of the benefits - Uber credit, extra points on shipping and gas, as it’s only applicable for US journeys/stores. So you’re basically getting the same benefits as a UK AMEX platinum (unless you go to the US and use those benefits).

Does anyone else feel like they are just falling behind with the price increases for our big ticket items such as cars and homes? Like I started working in 2017 and I realized I couldn’t make it the way I wanted on $105k so now I’m at around $250k and I got some rentals but all of the homes in my area have doubled in price since 2020 so from $500k to $1m or above so I feel like I’m still just as financially tight now and cars seem just as unobtainable as when I first started.
