the Amex Platinum points are hard to maximize from a points value perspective unless you really know the ins and outs of the partners.

CSR for insurance and ok points earning / Amex platinum or Citi prestige for pure points

Most of us would pick the CSR from an ROI and ease of use perspective over those other two options - Citi Prestige sucks now that the 4th night free benefit was gutted and (cont'd.)

If you’re required to use corporate card for all business expenses- Uber Visa, CapitalOne Savor are good options for personal travel, eating out.

I need some expert advice. I have 40k in 401k and 40k cash in savings account. I moved all 401k to a very low return safe portfolio in July and basically I haven't done anything with the cash as well.

Starting to feel like I am missing out on returns and now is the time to put everything back into the market. Does anyone know reliable financial advisors that will do it for me and also account for the independence related restrictions.

Other suggestions/tools appreciated as well.

I used to see people who didn't care about current events or politics as intellectually lazy and irresponsible.

However, I feel burnt out on the constant stream of divisive bickering and toxicity.

For the first time in my life, I don't want to know what's happening in the world and I don't care who wins.
