Will be spending around $14K (medical, life stuff) in June/July. What 2-3 cards could I sign up for to maximize points earned?

Only card in my portfolio is Amex Gold.
I'm thinking Venture X (premier travel card, low ann. fee), United Explorer (fly them often, waived fee first year) and M Bonvoy Boundless (stay at M often, can earn silver status, can transfer points). End goal is a trip to Asia sometime in next 1-2yrs, paid by points.
Any advice to maximize earnings with $14K spent?

Have 50k in a checking account at a local bank getting no returns. I like having liquid assets since I support currently myself & girlfriend and any unexpected expenses my mother & younger brother have.

I feel like the inability to access funds when my family needs it has been the reason I haven’t invested outside of 401k and have this cash reserve

Hi everyone, I’ve been trying to land my first product design role and I can’t seem to get my foot in the door. I’ve asked mentors from ADPlist to review my LinkedIn and resume as well as my portfolio and I haven’t had any luck. I graduated from uni in 2020, was bedridden for a whole year which led me to fall behind and I’m embarrassed that I can’t seem to get a job after months of actively trying - I desperately need help as I’m on a Visa that requires me to be employed.
Any advice?
