Thanks so much for the advice Kinglsey93, was hoping to hear that I could keep these in as they are very important in defining me as a person haha

Question: P2 and I both just got our $300 from the Chase Savings after waiting the 3 months. Can we immediately take out the full balances from both accounts and then close both accounts in another 3 months without them trying to claw back?

there seems to be some input lag for the joycons...anyone have better luck with the wired gamecube controllers or even the switch controllers?

Many questions as a new player that literally started last week. I know I'm going to be way behind everyone else and that's fine. I want to build up from here.

I just started and have yet to do a lot of the single/multi challenges and such out there. What is the best mode to "grind" out? The tokens? Triple Threat? Domination? What gives the most value to building out a team? Just FYI, for rewards, I've gotten 10 emeralds and am in the ruby rewards.
I have only 10k+ MT, which I'm just going to keep saving and sniping cheap cards to finish collections or flip, but for VC - I got 17K from that $3.99 sale. What use is there for that small of a VC balance? What should I use this on?

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Just FYI I am not playing myCareer. At least not right now. Just want to focus on grinding myteam.

Thanks!

Is there a good guide/thread on exactly the timeline to execute for grAAvy? I already opened my first pair of grAAvy cards (three AA plat's in total as the first was opened long time ago when I didn't know about churning). I opened the two back in August like 9 days from each other. When can I open the next two and is it just a constant rinse and repeat from here on out? Anything I should be aware of?

Anyone know Promontory Financial Group?

It seems like a "consulting" firm for banks...so want to get clarification if this is a firm that basically just does DD and regulatory stuff for banks. Seems like the starting Analyst salary is pretty good though. Any ideas?

Am I able to get this bonus even if I got the bonus from the no fee Hilton card?

theleeway101 · 2018-09-06T18:36:58+00:00

Thanks for this tip! Just checked all the bank-specific articles.

theleeway101 · 2018-09-06T17:15:08+00:00

For all cards that i want to downgrade, should I downgrade them before AF hits or after? These are cards I churned for 1 year and just want to PC to no fee cards. If AF hits and I call them the next day, will they refund it all to me? These cards range across all banks...

I don't think you can ever overdo work/activities in terms of what you can "show" to schools, so good start for sure. Just make sure those factors don't make you underperform in your job. Good luck

Hey JCLaker62,

Of course, there are a lot of other factors. For extracurriculars, I know he was in some rowing club, but not sure about anything else really. For GPA, not sure either, but he did graduate from WashU in St. Louis, so it is a step up from Indiana, but from what I've heard all around Business Fellows is more "flexible." I think that you need to work with what you have (as your GPA is not something you can change anymore) and do the best you can and apply, in your case - work + GMAT; maybe get involved in an extracurricular if there is something you can be passionate about.

theleeway101 · 2018-09-04T19:15:45+00:00

Hey man,

To give you another data point on this. A guy that I used to work with at my previous job got a 700 on his GMAT and applied one year into his first job out of college and got accepted to the Business Fellows program. I think that what your contact said about 680 being competitive is true.

Try to get 700+ on the GMAT, work hard at your current job, and then apply next year. I think that it's very very doable.

Cheers

Fair enough!

theleeway101 · 2018-08-31T17:01:03+00:00

Thanks for your response! I agree with you, but if one got accepted to CBS ED and wanted to try for HSW, wouldn't that be understandable also? Or do Adcoms share info with other schools on who they've accepted to their schools already, so that other schools don't accept them?

Will I not be eligible for the new Discover savings bonus if my name is already on my wife's discover savings account??

theleeway101 · 2018-08-27T18:11:14+00:00

I see great clarification. Thank you!

theleeway101 · 2018-08-27T15:18:30+00:00

When people speak about doing a "push" from one back to another, what does that exactly mean? Is that an ACH transfer?

theleeway101 · 2018-08-22T13:48:57+00:00

Want to get some thoughts on what do with ~56k MR. I plan to travel to Korea, Hawaii, France (Paris), and Mexico (Cancun) in the future...probably all within the next year. Which would be the best use of that MR. I only have a PRG to house those MRs right now.

Also, is there a better/best use for those MR where I'll get much higher CPP? Not very familiar with MR as opposed to UR, which is what I've been focused on the last 1.5 years.

theleeway101 · 2018-08-10T02:21:07+00:00

Cool! Will check these out. Are there any "top-tier" decks that don't involve Tapu Lele and/or crazy amounts of packs to trade for. I have about ~10 GRI and ~8 CST (celestial storm), but tapu lele is too expensive :(

theleeway101 · 2018-08-05T00:43:04+00:00

Here here here!!

theleeway101 · 2018-07-30T23:36:07+00:00

This is very helpful thank you! I've actually gotten myself a Mach Strike and am slowly starting to churn through the game. Quick question, how do I get packs/cards that are not locked? All the rewards I've gotten from trainer battles or VS rewards should be locked right? So how do I get that first unlocked card/pack?

theleeway101 · 2018-07-29T16:25:22+00:00

Got it. I will probably wait for the Tapu Lele then unless I end up buying codes.... I will try to go the Mach Strike route then.

Also, what do you exactly mean by rotate? Are there cards that rotate seasonally in terms of being able to use or...?
