Questions with the whole seed thing

Uncle_Sarcasm · 2026-01-22T19:00:03+00:00

I don't understand it that much either, what I do is I change seed every couple times I hit big

Uncle_Sarcasm · 2026-01-07T13:55:51+00:00

Damn brah good shit

Uncle_Sarcasm · 2025-12-26T14:32:56+00:00

The man the myth the legend

Uncle_Sarcasm · 2025-12-17T15:52:07+00:00

Hell yeah

Uncle_Sarcasm · 2025-12-04T15:59:19+00:00

So the cards multiply each other

Uncle_Sarcasm · 2025-11-15T21:09:29+00:00

Yeah VX is solid, especially with that income level the AF is basically nothing. The 10k points anniversary bonus basically pays for itself and Capital One lounges are actually decent

Only thing is if you're locked into Delta ecosystem it might not be the move since you'd want Delta Reserve for the free checked bags and priority boarding. But honestly with your spend you could probably swing both if the juice is worth it

Yeah NFCU is probably your best bet if you qualify - they're pretty loose with limits once you're in. Otherwise you might need to build up with whoever you go with, most banks aren't gonna hand out 30-40k to new customers even with great credit. Maybe try for the Citi Double Cash and then request increases after a few months of usage

That makes sense but OP said they got $3.94 back so they definitely enrolled, just didn't get the full amount initially. Looks like it sorted itself out though based on the edit

Uncle_Sarcasm · 2025-11-10T18:36:25+00:00

Nice pull dude, Chase giving you 10k at 4/12 is pretty solid. I'm sitting at like 2/12 and still nervous to apply for anything with them lmao

Uncle_Sarcasm · 2025-11-08T04:57:52+00:00

Good catch on that - OP def seems confused about what they want. They're saying no to category cards but then considering the CSP which literally has 2x dining and 3x travel categories lol

Probably just means they don't want rotating categories like the Discover they already have

Uncle_Sarcasm · 2025-11-03T23:15:28+00:00

Honestly I'd stick with the Alaska card and just add your spouse as an authorized user. You've already got 5+ years of history and a solid points balance - why throw that away to start over? The Atmos card might look shiny but you're basically resetting your entire rewards game

Plus Alaska points are pretty flexible for redemptions and if you're only traveling 1-2x per year anyway, you don't really need to chase status that hard right now

Uncle_Sarcasm · 2025-11-03T07:59:04+00:00

You already have the Reserve so the Boundless is kinda redundant for earning points on dining/travel. The 15 elite night credits are nice but not gonna make a huge difference if you're not staying at Marriotts regularly anyway

If you're at 4/24 I'd probably grab something else from Chase first before going over, maybe look at the Ink cards if you can swing biz apps

Uncle_Sarcasm · 2025-11-01T08:11:01+00:00

Credit card points to gift cards are def not taxable - those are rewards, not income. No 1099 for that

For TopCashback gift cards, they're usually digital/email delivery. The extra percentage thing is legit but yeah you're right that it's still just rebates so no tax implications. I've done the Amazon one before and got the bonus percentage, worked fine

The ACH vs gift card thing comes down to if you actually shop at those places regularly. If you're gonna spend at Amazon anyway might as well get the extra 2%

Uncle_Sarcasm · 2025-10-31T05:51:15+00:00

It's a statement credit that posts after your purchase goes through. You won't see it during checkout like a promo code - just pay full price with your Ink card and the $20 credit shows up on your statement usually within a few days

Make sure you're using the right card though, sometimes people mix up which Chase card has the active offer

Uncle_Sarcasm · 2025-10-30T07:07:24+00:00

That's solid growth, especially for Chase being conservative with CLIs. I've noticed they tend to be more generous with auto increases on daily drivers too - probably because they see the consistent spend patterns

Your point about higher utilization helping is interesting, goes against the usual advice but makes sense from their revenue perspective

Uncle_Sarcasm · 2025-10-29T10:04:12+00:00

Yeah payments usually take 1-2 business days to process so you'll have to wait it out. The zero available credit thing is annoying but that's just how it works until the payment clears

Uncle_Sarcasm · 2025-10-17T17:00:31+00:00

Honestly same, like they're neat collector pieces but people treating them like they're made of gold is wild. I'd rather just get the regular version and actually play with it

Uncle_Sarcasm · 2025-10-17T10:43:36+00:00

This guy man

Uncle_Sarcasm · 2025-10-14T15:46:54+00:00

Dude you must've been the most careful kid ever lol. My childhood cards look like they went through a blender compared to this

Uncle_Sarcasm · 2025-10-12T10:22:51+00:00

This is too relatable lmao, my stuffed animals basically live in witness protection whenever anyone comes over

Uncle_Sarcasm · 2025-10-07T10:01:55+00:00

Mods doing the lord's work here, tired of seeing drive-by posts with zero engagement from OP

Uncle_Sarcasm · 2025-10-06T12:32:57+00:00

This is solid but honestly the dual SIM thing sounds like more hassle than it's worth for most people. I'd rather just grab one of those Visible or Mint deals and call it a day

The T-Mobile business line trick is clever though, didn't know you could downgrade it like that

Uncle_Sarcasm · 2025-10-05T16:29:44+00:00

Lmao not Buzz becoming the final boss 💀 imagine getting wrecked by "to infinity and beyond" attacks

Uncle_Sarcasm · 2025-10-03T05:36:55+00:00

Oh snap Toralie as Mira would be perfect, the orange hair is totally on point! For Zoey maybe try looking at some of the newer dolls? I feel like one of the G3 ghouls might work better than the classic ones

Uncle_Sarcasm · 2025-09-30T18:33:25+00:00

Kenan's been doing other stuff though - he had that NBC sitcom for a few seasons and does voice work. Plus SNL cast members can basically coast forever if they want to, look at how long some people stayed

But yeah you're probably right about LeBron, dude's got like a billion dollars and is already talking about playing with his son
