  • BILT card is in a league of its own for travel. Time to upgrade my Sapphire Preferred to the Reserve because BILT has just invalidated the Chase Sapphire Preferred.

    This card is going to explode in 2024.
    The more I watch your videos the more I think you are right. The best three cards for traveling are the Venture X, Savior One, and BILT. You legitimately don’t need any other cards. Great travel perks and catch all. Dining and Entertainment. The simplicity at home or traveling. It’s insane.
    If you are by yourself this is the biggest no brainer card period. However if you do have a P2 I think churning Chase cards first still make sense.
    Anyways man what the hell is Amex going to do? They keep increasing their AFs and making it more difficult to use credits, how the hell are they going to compete next year?

      I agree with you that the VX, Savor One and BILT are great to take with you on the road. However, you know that I prefer long-term stays when abroad which is why I favor the Citi Premier over the Savor One because of the 3X on gas for my vehicle rentals and the 3X travel category because I enjoy dining at beach hotels which is normally coded as a hotel.
      Priority pass with the VX is cute 😊but I prefer centurion and even the Delta Sky Club so I always travel with Amex Platinum and almost exclusively book flights with it. I've only recently incorporated the Sapphire Reserve into my travel strategy because the Preferred was rendered useless by the BILT card. As much as I try, I have no use for the Freedom cards mostly because of the foreign transaction fees so they just wouldn't get much use in my case.
      My sense is that AMEX is increasing its fees to help solve the lounge issue AND to add back more exclusivity around the Platinum card. If they price some folks out of it, that will in turn push it to being a flex again. As long as I can extract value from the card north of $700 no one is going to pry it away from me. Earlier this month, I crushed one of my new 75-day old air buds and within a week of filing a purchase protection claim, the funds were credited to my account. Amex's customer service is valuable to me.

      Yeah man for you the Citi Premier is pretty damn nice. And I would love to use the Plat long term but I can't justify the credits. I would only get value out of the Uber credits everything else is shit I don't spend on now, so unfortunately it does not make sense for me and it sucks because I want it too, but I have to remain strong, its simply a card to churn and cancel.
      The only thing I like about the Sapphire Reserve is the 3x on Travel for things like trains and buses, that adds up. And if Chase ever adds a grocery category its over for Cap 1 and Amex.
      But I still want to see the Strata cards.
      Maybe make a video on your predictions for 2024? Ive heard so many rumors from the Strata and even the Amex Titanium. @@RSquared-travel-rewards

      @@L-Man-Gaming Chase will never add groceries to the reserve. Not gonna happen. It's a premium travel credit card so they will only add lux benefits. I amass MR points easily so I wanted to try getting the same with UR points which is why I'm splurging with the Reserve which I'm certain is going to be improved next year. Chase is likely waiting on Citi to make a move. We'll see how long I hold on the Reserve.
      So cool that you're disciplined regarding credit cards. It is a necessary trait to maximize value. You see the way I eat, with one centurion lounge visit, I get $75-$100 in value 😂.
      I will make something like a prediction vid for 2024 but it will be more like stuff I'm wishing into existence.
      Thanks for the support man. It makes a difference when folks do respond. It keeps me going 😊. Take care!!

    I have the card, but not using it. Its just not that great if you’re not paying rent with it. I’m not going to make 5 transactions just to keep the points earned. I’m going to cancel it.

      Oh no. Don't .......
      Use it as a dining card and pair it with another card to get great value. You can make micro purchases. One month I used it just 3 times so I made 2 micro purchases in 1 go at my local CVS. Gum then without leaving the store, I picked up some M&M's.
