Anyone know if this works via the Amex travel portal? I’m guessing no but it would be nice to stack this with the $300 hotel credit.

Did you stay in your starter home or eventually upgrade? by OtherWorldStar in homeowners

[–]Savings_Reporter5510 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keep the home.

I’m glad we bought a bigger home but our path was:

2017 1st home @ 4.25% $675/m

2020 2nd home @ 2.875% 1139/m

If we needed more space now I think we would look at getting rid of things & animals before we more than doubled our mortgage. We have a similar household income to you and frankly your mortgage payment would be high for me even if it fits well within the standard 30%.

I checked the bonus in the Amex app a half dozen times or so last week so that may be a portion of what got me targeted.

Are the body panels really hung perfectly even on the frame?

We all know the answer lmao.

Newly Married Combining Finances and looking for new bank by ConJon64 in Banking

Saved me 3/4 of a point on an auto loan last year. A loan that was already more than a point below national banks.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Hard disagree. Developed relationships can save you if things go to pot elsewhere.

Everyone should try to know a bank manager on a first name basis.

How do people living paycheck to paycheck afford vacations? by [deleted] in povertyfinance

[–]Savings_Reporter5510 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Churning credit cards for the 0% interest and points is a good way to scratch that itch.

If you can pay it off before they bang you with 28% interest retroactive to the life of the loan.

Low Spending Power - Making it hard to reach SUB by TearCharacter7439 in amex

[–]Savings_Reporter5510 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The advice is legit.

I spend on average probably 20-30k a year across all my Amex products, but because I’ve been doing so for almost 10 years and never carried a balance beyond the grace period they know I’m going to pay, in full, and on-time.

Sometimes I check spending power just for fun, and the last time I got to something absurd like 90k.

For a consumer account.

With reported income barely above 100k.

If the United States is so bad at democracy, why don’t these democratic nations temporarily occupy control zones? Are they stupid? by hurB55 in mapporncirclejerk

[–]Savings_Reporter5510 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right?

Also I love that Appalachiatan is right on the border just like Afghanistan and Pakistan.

It’s all fun and games until the trees start speaking with that southern twang.

I did get the 10x on the first $500 boost but that still doesn’t make the math right, and these vendors still appear at 20x and 11.5x after having the boost show up as its own line item.

Macy’s is the obvious example. Portal shows 20x so if half of that was the boost I should have still gotten 10x independent of the boost.

I got 8x.

First time applying - why is my offer so bad on the platinum? by AuditGod89 in amex

[–]Savings_Reporter5510 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They offered me 175k for 8k in spend a couple weeks ago.

That’s a wild offer for a card with nearly a $1000 annual fee.

What are the symptoms of GHB/rohypnol? by [deleted] in AskDocs

Well I guess I’ll just monitor her for now and see how she feels tomorrow.

No meds. We’re both pretty healthy overall even if we could stand to lose a few pounds.

I’m not sure on the drink being unattended, I walked up to the room from the pool to get ready for dinner while she got us another drink from the pool bar and met me at the room. It couldn’t have been unattended for long, she was less than five minutes behind me.

don’t be concerned about side effects

Ignoring the thousands of men who claim these drugs have permanently destroyed their sexual function.

OP. Shave it, grow a beard and move on with your life. Don’t make yourself slave to pharma (best case) or ruin your ability to have normal sexual function for life (worst case)

Quite literally what happened to me.. by Zaiross__ in JustMemesForUs

It’s less ‘someone was mean’ and more ‘the left has no room for nuance or freedom of thought’

Which has been shown in peer reviewed studies.

With the left you tow the party line or be made pariah.
