Well, I’m a few months late on this, but I was going through old emails and I found one from American Express that stuck out. Earlier this year, in February to be exact, American Express sent me a year-in-review with my new Rose Gold card which I found entertaining. I’m not sure why but I…
There is no doubt about it, for the past few years Chase has been the absolute leader in consumer credit cards. I can’t think of another card issuer out there that offers such a well-rounded group of credit cards that offer mass appeal. Specifically, Chase has done an excellent job marketing their Chase Freedom and…
Of all the credit cards in my wallet today I find the American Express Platinum card to be the most valuable. Sure the card carries a $550 annual fee, but I honestly believe I get at least that much value from the card annually. For starters, each year I get $200 in airline credits through…
A few days ago I hit publish on yet another post where I discuss the Citi Prestige card. In that post I went through some of the benefits of the refreshed card, but also considered how it would fit into My Wallet. In that post I compare the Citi Prestige card to the Chase Sapphire…
I just can’t stop thinking about the Citi Prestige card. Sure the constant feed of articles hitting my google feed about the card has something to do with it, but bottom line, I think it’s a great all-around card. I just can’t help but think I’m making a mistake by not carrying it. For that…
As I’ve mentioned several times before, the Chase Freedom card is one of the most interesting cards in my wallet today. What makes the card interesting, for me, is that it’s a Cash Back credit card. Every single other card I carry (besides my old Bank of America card) is a point earning card. For…
As you may of heard by now Marriott’s rewards program, for better or worse, is getting a new name. Beginning later this month, February 13th to be exact, the Marriott Rewards program will become Marriott Bonvoy. Further, the Ritz-Carlton Rewards and Starwood Preferred Guest loyalty programs will also fold into the new, single, Marriott Bonvoy…
I’ve had quite the history with the Citi Prestige card over the past few years. That history began a few years ago when I product changed from the Citi AAdvantage Executive card to the Citi Prestige card. I product changed to the Citi Prestige card because the card’s benefits included Admirals Club access, but also…
As another year begins I think it’s time to once again check-in and do an overview of My Wallet. As competition among credit card issuers heat up I think it’s important to look at the cards I carry to see if there are better options available. So, after going through the cards currently in my…
Earlier this year American Express completely refreshed the flagship Gold card. Prior to the refresh American Express offered two versions of the popular credit card (business versions excluded). However, in October 2018 American Express refreshed the Gold card and simply began calling it, well, The Gold Card. I know, it’s confusing, so I’ve been referring…
