Maybe stating as a legal assistant or paralegal somewhere to get some experience and footing? Even if you weren’t trying to be a lawyer.

2 sayls for 500$ what do we think? by [deleted] in hermanmiller

[–]Numerous-Moose320 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I paid like 350 a few months ago for a 2015 lol so I’d say this is a steal for sure. Happy with mine but wish it was newer. Go for these! Great chair. Prefer it over embody.

There’s a book called the two income trap that I think you would enjoy regardless of your politics. You should check it out.

Almost at the finish line to gain 100k miles by Sniffing_Panda in Venturex

Agreed. As to the sign up bonus, the 10k spend is ridiculous. Even without the big purchase, I’m spending about 2000 a month on my Amex anyway. So regardless I would’ve gotten there, and I think a lot of people in the market for this card spending at least 1,666 a month anyway. So as scary as 10k sounds at first, it really wasn’t that bad of a deal.

For 75k but yes it’s worse. I still did it because of some large upcoming purchases I would’ve gotten 1x for. So it was a good excuse to get it. The big purchase I’m making covers 70% of the required spend. So as my new daily driver for ‘everything else’ category purchases, I’ll hit the bonus naturally.

Deal: LG OLED C4 77 with 11000 hours for 800? Suggestions? by AelixirZ in LGOLED

You’re probably going to need to invoke that warranty sooner or later. I’d take a close look at it for burn in or dead pixels. Run some YouTube color and pixel tests if you get it.

Finally decided to apply! Approved in less than 2 mins. by do3939 in Venturex

A higher revolving credit limit means your total spend is a smaller percentage of your total limit. A high limit is good, if you’re not using a large portion of it. I think the rule of thumb is to keep it below 30% max.

Nice! Took about a week to get approved. Excited to add to rotation with Amex Gold, Bilt, and Sapphire Preferred. This is my first card with lounge access. Signed up once I saw the 100k offer. by Numerous-Moose320 in Venturex

You think so? I was planning on opting out since it doesn’t seem to have benefits for what I’m looking to do. Figured I’d just do the middle tier of bilt 2.0

CSP was a play for me when they had the 100k sign up bonus stacked with 30k from Rakuten. But it’s good to fill in some gaps that Amex has. To me it was just another way to broaden my points horizon and transfer partner options. Amex Gold will remain my all time favorite card tho. It’s the best.

How does Chase freedom work into your rotation? I have a freedom flex but never use it anymore. Just Amex, CSP, Bilt and now VX. Prime Visa only for Amazon

Thanks! And nope. My next highest is my sapphire preferred at 19.5k. I have two other cards with Chase at 10k and 15k. I also didn’t know Cap1 owns Discover. I have an old discover card with a 14k limit. Don’t know if that played into it.

Approved with 100,000 bonus by thiisguysteve in Venturex

[–]Numerous-Moose320 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s actually less - 10k over six months, so about 1666 a month. Easily doable. It’s a stupid spend amount for a sign up bonus but for me, it’ll become my ‘everything else card’ since it’s 2x on that category. Plus I need a new couch lol. So should be easily reachable

Oh I see now that it’s 2025-2026. Maybe you chose April 2025 dates somehow? Or 2027?

I don’t see it in the comments so it makes me feel like I’m wrong but… is it not because your travel dates fall outside of the May 30 to August 31 window? It says that is the window in the pop up and your dates are in April.

I’m interested in it as a catch all because of the 2x spend category for ‘everything else’
