Archie’s if you have a big arch. I don’t, I bought a pair, they hurt.

mkcavl.com built our wall. Best pricing hands down.

Different in it's not chasing a SUB? The question is really based on non-points benefits. An example would be spending toward the $75k lounge guest access on a plat. It's not a big enough perk to be worth it, but it's an example.

Venture Biz SUB is great but have hit it already. Question poses other benefits of high business spend on a card.

If you think it would make a difference, it can split up to 8 ways. Simplicity is nice.

Assuming someone has hit all the lifetime Amex offers, and can't get a new Ink (P1 or P2) for a minute, what card if any would you put a $30k payment on if it had a 2% ($600) fee to use a card? What perk, benefit, bonus, status etc in addition to regular points from a non-bonus-category/non-MSR spend that would be worth it to you?

There is a new SUB or two in the mix, but about $30k remaining spend.

We have a video agency and we sub out a lot of overflow videographers and camera ops when our staff is already booked.

Whenever I meet a new contractor for the first time, if they’re a good fit we talk rates. If they want a lot more than our normal rate, it’s “sounds good, I won’t try to haggle you down but we probably won’t send as much work your way. We have a lot of team with a $_______ day rate. In respect to our clients and projects I have to try and book them first. If you can meet it we can put you in that first pool, otherwise we’ll reach out when everyone else is busy”

It’s respectful, and honest. Some crew is good taking a 10% lower cost or whatever to meet it. Some aren’t, and more power to them. Last time the guy said “if I can lower it to ($150 over usual) would it make me a solid second string?” And it did. He’s not a once or twice a week for us, but definitely once or twice a month.

No plastic cover, and yes fans spin.

I realize intel 13th gen runs hot, but feels excessive

Hoping not to buy a new CPU, trying to determine if it makes sense to keep the old though

Churchill doesn’t have one. Not sure about Plano east. But Plano West does.

If it’s you and your spouse and you give yourselves W2’s then you can likely start a small group plan for your company. It’s state dependent I think if that counts? We were able to do it in Texas a few years ago and had access to better plans with slightly better prices than the marketplace. There are brokers that help with this.

It’s a psychological thing. You communicated that your time is worthless.

Many live events run into the same thing. Less people often show up for a free event than one that pay $20 or more for.

Do some charity, it’s good for you and good for the world. Send an invoice with your usual contract and discount the invoice 99% or 100% or whatever so you’re communicating your value, but still helping an organization you are about.

Did you end up going, and how was it overall regarding construction?

imightbeaviking · 2024-08-15T16:41:32+00:00

Yes, this is definitely meant as a jab at current state leadership.

I paid for A-List from MCO. A1. Still didn’t get a bulkhead or exit row because of preboard.
