What's the best way to use 11000 American Express green card points when you don't have any other AmEx cards?

You can open a HYSA or checking account with Amex to keep those points if you want to cancel your Green card.
Best way is travel partners but 11k won't get you much by itself. If you don't have a use for travel points then get ready for a bad redemption rate when exchanging it for gift cards or a statement credit

11k points is very low. You need to transfer to airlines to get good value but you can't do that with the Green alone. You either need to open a card like the Gold/Plat or be stuck with terrible redemptions like gift cards.

My work gives us points/money for achieving certain activities such as exercising for 180 mins per week. I have my Apple Watch automatically sync with the app that tracks our activities and it works great. Problem is I started using NRC (Nike run Club) app for runs and it interferes with the Workout app on my Apple Watch and it doesn’t get tracked. Has anyone found a way for the NRC and Workout app to run simultaneously (pun intended)?

Hi all, I am trying to DCA bi-weekly into Vanguard ETFs, (VO, VTI etc). It seems like Fidelity does not support auto buying of non-Fidelity ETFs. So I was wondering which of these options you think is best?

1. Open a Vanguard Invest account
2. Look for Fidelity ETFs that are similar to Vanguard ETFs
3. Use smaller brokerages like SoFi l, Robinhood etc.

I really do not want to manage nor be active. My goal is to log-in like once every 6 months.

Thank you all.
