Great show guys! My questions are do you guys keep track of your spend when you are working on a sign-up bonus? Somewhere along the way I heard that you should keep track of your spend and not rely on the card’s calculation (which I don’t do). Also @nicole I listened to your explanation on how to calculate how many points to transfer for a transfer bonus several times and I still don’t get it. 🤦🏾♀️
@LetsGetToThePoints4 күн бұрын
Thank you for watching! Calculation example: if Amex has a 30% transfer bonus to British Airways, and the award ticket will cost 70k Avios, you would divide 70k by 1.30: 70,000/1.30 = 54,000 miles needed to transfer. If the bonus is 25%, you would divide by 1.25. Let us know if this makes sense!

This was great, I am fairly new. It’s harder for single people to meet minimum spend. I did manage it for my Sapphire card. I had my capital one card for years, so I cannot recall if I even had one. Since I have Chase, Capital One, and Bilt, I think I am good with a base to start accumulating points. I do also have an AA card, and got my 60K points many years ago. The transfer partners that I found out about a few months ago is a game changer for me. I am very excited about saving money next year when I start traveling again.

Yes, it is possible to transfer back and forth an unlimited amount of times. But they will limit you if they detect fraud.

I can understand getting multiples of the same credit card like Nicole’s gold and platinum business AMEX for the SUB but with the high annual fees, do you downgrade or cancel them after a year? Is there a downgrade path for AMEX gold/platinum (business or personal) to a no annual fee card? Thank you for another great and timely episode!

You can cancel the high AF cards after the 2nd AF posts. However, open Amex BBP before doing to enable you still have all your points. This card has no AF and it is 2x on every dollar spent up to $50k/year

Hi! Do you mean using a cc to fund a bank/credit union account? This would be specific to each bank/credit union. If you do decide to use a cc, it’s best practice to set the cash advance limit to $0 so you’re not charged any fees.

I am an Airbnb superhost and we get a really bad rap. There are awful hosts and there are awful guests. I have only had 1 bad guest out of my many guests…and we do negotiate when possible. I have done that in the past. I have also had a few hosts give me a better rate. It seems in Europe, they want to send messages via whatsapp…so far it has worked for me. I stay in more airbnbs than hotels due to the cost and the space.
