CSR gives really great travel rates through their portal, which is simple and double dips to earning miles with airlines. Of course we’re not traveling much these days.

If you have a schwab account, you can get the Amex Platinum CS which has all then benefit of the platinum card, plus you can redeem point at 1.25 cents to your brokerage account, effectively giving you a cash back option.

Of course none of the points matter if you end up carrying a balance.

Amex blue. 2 points on every purchase upto 50k and zero fee.

Maybe try negotiating a cash discount instead of getting points

Before that I spent money on getting a professional resume from Monster. Highly recommended. Good luck all.

I just got approved for my second CC and it has a limit of $18,000. The credit card is with Navy Federal and it’s the cash rewards card that yields 1.75% cash back on all purchases. Can anyone give any tips or ideas as to what I can do with this? I was thinking to purchase an existing business that is already generating income. Thoughts?

Just used a meaningful amount of AMEX points for the first time to buy flights to Greece for my wife and I. Emirates business class both ways for 2 people, 290k pts total or 145k each way for 2 tickets. Plus another 30k to get us round trip domestic connecting flights bringing the total to 320 points. This is on the 777 which isn’t the best business class product out there, but I’ve never flown international outside of coach and think it will still be worthwhile. Think this is an OK redemption?

I hate that I’m saying this but I really just want a beautiful watch that is horologically great but just has one pusher that sends a signal to your phone to do one specific task. I can’t tell you how often I’m out and about and I would love to just press a pusher on the side of a Tudor or something and it can’t just tell my phone to Shazam a song or something.

Hey y’all. Would love to get some thoughts from people about buying vintage watches and what resources you might use to evaluate a piece before you buy.

I’ve only ever bought new watches but am in love with some vintage pieces. I’m not really sure where to start with resources to do my due diligence and ensure I’m not massively over paying or buying something that no watch maker today could really service.

Would love some thoughts from the bowl on any vintage buys y’all have done.

Thanks!
