Saw that notification saying “featuring Mark Plymale” and had to immediately watch! Awesome collab here guys. Totally agree, definitely a card that’s still worth it even though the devaluation sucks

I maxed out my 2 BBP cards, and prepurchased 3-4 months of postage on the Bus Gold. Not renewing with the devaluation and $695 AF.

Nice work on the collab. They’re always fun to watch. You both always explain credit cards thoroughly and help us make informed decisions.

I got the Schwab card as soon as I heard about the devaluing. I just hit the 100k bonus yesterday and cashed out my entire Amex points balance for about $2k. Thank you both for the videos!

Anyone tell Mark not to do any credit card ladder videos? That's Shifu's trigger.

100K shwab offer or 125K +15x on restaurants for 6 months vanilla offer?

Still worth IMO, especially for Schwab clients in general. I redeemed my welcome bonus for Tesla shares in 2019 which… best per point value, ever.

Great video! I found the MS Platinum very interesting bc the minimum to waive the fee is the lowest between the Platinums. Any opinion on other platinums like the Goldman Sachs?

Reply
Paul Jackson August 30, 2021 - 11:55 pm

The business platinum is very equivalent to chase 1.5 cpp with their 35% rebate. You do have to have enough points to buy the ticket but when you get the 35% back, the value is about 1.5 cpp total.

Thanks for featuring another credit card youtuber! Mark and Dustin (Wallers Wallet) produce great content, but don't seem to get much love from the algorithm.

Why is it still worth it though?
