Dang, I guess I have focused too much on credit cards and not enough on the banks themselves, lol. I had no idea that banks valued certain levels of assets like that!! You should make a video on best bank for each level of assets: ie:

aeroplan miles sale is definitely super good deal, nonstopdan turned me onto this sale. i only bought 600k miles because i am afraid of devaluation, and i dont want to buy more miles than i have plan to use in the next 12 months. but everyone should buy at least 150k miles, 1800 USD for a roundtrip business class flight is amazingly cheap.
@deliverydoctorАй бұрын
Newbie here. Is it pretty common to get (or is it pretty easy to book) a business class leg at $900 worth of points? I understand YMMV but it common enough to hold onto 500k to 600k points until you can actually book?

I’m definitely considering right now. I want to be early next year for flight in the following year so deciding whether I should buy with the possibility to book in 8 months

@@deliverydoctor You would typically purchase points where you're looking to "top off" or already have redemption[s] in mind with appropriate availability. I will also say that Avianca also has sales like this somewhat frequently (at least twice per year from my experience, but sometimes 3 or 4 times per year). AP and LM have different availability for partner awards, so that's why I would typically look for redemptions I'm going to already make and purchase points if necessary, or if there's a different redemption with a competing alliance (like FlyingBlue, for example) so I want to keep my flexible CC points and the value of the points sale reflects elevated value over the cash difference, including fees for those award redemptions. I guess with all of that said, I typically go about points purchases considering the alliance those points are part of, their nominal purchase value compared to their cash price ticketing price and award availability. The more flexible and widely available the awards redemptions are with what you're looking for with a points program then the easier it is to really justify the points purchase and find value there.

My phone obviously was listening to what was going on as I literally just left Chase bank to meet with a banker. Initially just to have them call reconsideration line on a denial for Ink Preferred card (it worked!!) but then they asked about my other assets (401k's, house I own, etc) and started going through things they had to offer. They just were telling me about Private Client though...no mention of these Vault offerings. I'm between $750k and $1M currently so I might dig into this a bit more.

🚢 1. I suspect one of three things either interest on points like BILT, Chase HYSA finally or a loyalty program like BoA personally I hope and think the BoA is the most likely as it fixes a lot of the complaints about Chase credit cards but only if you have money. 2. No all my PTO is being saved for my wedding next Spring. 3. Not since United slashed award availability
@ryanshannon6963Ай бұрын
about your first "bullet point": It doesn't mean you need $750k in cash sitting in an account. It's *assets*. Cash is obviously an asset (unless you think of it strictly in a financial opportunity cost lens, then it's a depreciable asset since cash doesn't keep up with inflation). However, properties are assets, stocks/SDIRAs are assets (which is why Sebby said Self-Directeds count towards assets), etc...If your business checking account is with them, and you're actually circulating money through it, that business relationship would help with you moving up through the tranches. What I'm curious about is if you have a business account with them, utilize their business CCs for that spend, but are leveraged through a different institution. Would be great if they could rate match or beat those existing financial mediums and bring those under one roof, with preferential rates with a stronger relationship. I imagine that is probably a greater possibility with the JPM PC and JPM PB service levels. If they go BoA style then that would be a very solid move for me since I wouldn't really consider other banks given the flexibility and award accumulation through the total relationship that would develop. About the second point: Is that wedding like 3 weeks long? WTF? The Third: United Miles are pretty much garbage saving for some partner redemptions. Otherwise, I generally avoid US carrier points systems like the plague since they offer so little in value it's truly pathetic why people even throw their earned/flown miles into those programs.

🚢Platinum Rewards-type strategies would be a creative way for banks to cut out unprofitable churners. It's far easier to change credit cards than switch your bank. So start gating the top-end rewards and cards behind having AUM with the bank and either nerf existing rewards or just let them atrophy. Could also end up being a safety net against further regulation of swipe fees.

@ryanshannon6963Ай бұрын
amex platinum for ANA/Star Alliance would be best bet (if you're thinking of Asia). If it's Europe then maybe leverage UR points unless you dedicate the UR to Hyatt awards and the availability is there. Europe is way easier to find decent deals than Asia with UR points. Europe is accessible through basically any transferable card with FlyingBlue and the Avios family. Asia is a little harder, but the ANA redemption is by far the best for Asia. Next would be Virgin Atlantic, but good luck finding the availability. Next up would be, again, Avios family. Also, to maximize the amount of flights vs quality of flights, go economy rather than Premium or J/F for your flights. All of this just depends upon your travel goals: get there in style or go to as many places as possible as cheaply as possible.
