NEED HELP! I want to get a travel credit card, but I don’t know if I should get the BOA travel rewards or the capital one venture one (I already have de BOA cash rewards) which one will be better? I have low spend but I do travel here and there overseas at least once or twice a year
You should do a video on bank/brokerage account churning. Like the 100 signup bonus for both the charles schwab and etrade brokerage account when you deposit 1000 and 5000.
Sebby, when you get a chance, could you make a video about how to do status match with AMEX platinum with Wyndam, Caesars Rewards, and M life? I find little outdated information online.
Thank you!
What is your definition of low spend/high spend? Gotta know your thresholds to understand how this applies to my situation 🤷♂️
Sebby and ProudMoney often mention the Chase 5/24 rule, but another issue with Chase is that they have their own internal scoring system which can spit out scores that are significantly different from Fico.
I'm convinced ppl just wait for your videos to drop and copy.. 🤷🏾♂️
What is the range for annual low spend?
on the low card-high effort quadrant, what is Divid and COS1?
Hi Sebby, as it's somewhat related to this video, I had a question about Chase's 5/24 rule: is the 24 month period based on the oldest card that someone has or the newest? For example, if I have five credit cards with my oldest being three years old and my second oldest being less than two years old, would I be in the clear for a new Chase card, or would I still have to wait the two years for a new one? Thanks in advance, and great video as always!
Wells Fargo propel card is a beast
awesome content. Great topic to discuss.
Just getting into this. Have had a Discover card and Capital One Quicksilver as my base and am learning so much. Thanks.
It drives me crazy when Apple fan boy blindly tell me that the Apple Card is a good everyday card when there’s so many better options
I don't think the majority of your viewers know what lean fire / FIRE is.
Random question but does anyone know when or how long does it take for when length of credit to stop being poor? I’ve had my first and only so far credit card for a year and 2 months and it still says “poor” for length of credit
Awesome video you’re the man !
Credit card videos are my new addiction apparently 🤣
I'm a college student running a boa cash reward(first card before i knew anything) -> chase freedom -> chase freedom unlimited I also use the venmo card bc they give 4-5% back on a few places I go to so it's a good mix rn. I do try and rack up as many UR points atm though. This is a easy to use setup for me I have my boa 3% set to dining and just use it for groceries and dining and then freedom for categories whenever and freedom unlimited for anything else. Planning on getting CSP when I get out of college in a year and don't know what 5th chase card to get looking at a marriot card possibly.
Thanks for another informative vid, Sebby
FYI, the USAA cash back cards are available to anyone, I think at a minimum you must have money in a checking or saving account. Being current or former military does not apply to the bank. Military affiliation required for getting insurance. Some cash back categories apply to military only, such as Base exchange shopping! Otherwise that WF Propel AMEX looks good. Also LOVE the 2×2 chart, total consulting vibe!
OH That Knock had me dying! We are superstitious too and always knock 3 times – I knowww it's crazy but I still do it anyway lol
Depending if chase still does it the Chase freedom unlimited gives double 1.5% back so 3% for the first $20k that you spend! Thoughts? Any other cards that give this kind of 3% incentive for my next card? Already have freedom 5% rotating category was thinking discover it?
Can you make a video on cheapoair visa signature credit card?
SEBBY would the Wells Fargo Propel count as an Amex card? I know that Amex should be a late game set up bc of the point you leave on the table if you get in too early. I want the WFPropel but I don’t want it to affect me later and not get the better bonus for Amex. Thank you in advance 🙏🏼
I don't get the last category. Why only 5 cards? What's the point of that category?
very useful like always.I suggest you actually show the real card while you re explaining the pro and cons in the video since there are many options and you speak very fast so that is not always easy to follow and you have to repeatedly pause the video.Thanks
Hey Sebby new subscriber here i have a question i'm fairly new to the credit game i'm in the process of rebuilding my credit i'm in the 700s with all three bureaus i have two secured cards i've had one of them for 6 mts now. i want to get a starter card preferably the wells fargo propel card. should i apply for it or just wait till next year to start applying for the chase cards because i do plan on traveling very soon. BTW i only have one inquiry on my file. Not sure what i should do. any help would be appreciated thanks
Please do a video on best cards for people who spend about $1,000 per month and fly 2-4 times per year with a combination of domestic and international flights
Hey Sebby. I got the AMEX Hilton Honors card with 100k SUB. I'm intending to be prepared with a lot of points when I do start to travel in 2021 and 2022. NO annual fee.
I have 2 cc discover secured $500 and credit union unsecured $1000 , per discover credit check I have a 766 score had my cards for 4 months but had previous auto loan and personal loans history . I want to get Amex blue cash everyday and chase freedom would it be a great idea to apply or both on the same day ??? Any info would be appreciated thanks

I agree credit cards are the new thing for the 2020 Pandemic. I am in the house anyway so might as well use my card online.
I love this guy! He gives a lot of recommendations and it's educated me to bring my credit score from the 500s now close to the 800s points in my credit score 🙂
what if im currently not making and spending much, and its uncertain when i'll be making and spending more? i dont even know where ill be next year, and whether or not ill still be making 40k, or if i go back to school, or if ill magically find a higher paying job! should i just get the citibank or chase discover now? or is it better i wait until im higher income so i can get better cards like chase sapphire or alliant cash back? Sabby mentions its not worth getting these low spend credit cards if you have a big life change coming in 6 months, so whats the minimum amount of time u should have these cards for, assuming higher paying jobs roll around eventually? 1, 2, or 3 years? thank u
Hi Sebby, Question. What target number do you consider High Spend? Is it a percentage of income or a monetary value?
bestbuy store card for 5% electronics and gas
amazon visa (non prime) for 3% amazon/whole foods and any foreign transaction
citi double cash for 2% everything else, planning to save points for redemption in future, i have over 1k worth of points in rewards lol
