The plan going forward
#235
In my best year for points and cash back relative to income I made $60K and put $75K on my AMEX (corporate flying expenses, including hotels at 5% cash back). Any bill I could put on my CC I did. Tried to put a $25K car on it, had the money in my checking account. Minimum cash back was 1.5%. $0 in interest charges, and about $3K cash back.
As long as you treat a credit card like a check, you come out ahead. If you think of a credit card as a revolving line of credit you will pay. But if the people that think that way didn't have credit cards they would be doing payday loans at 20%. There is a reason virtually every company has started excluding CCs from autopay discounts, and it is not because they worry about cost to the customer.

Are you expecting massive cuts to QOL benefits? Spirit used to be the place to be for great QOL. I can't imagine that remaining true.
