Thanks for reading, watching and listening. Have a great day!
I’ve been on the fence as to renewing the Reserve come Dec. I think I will do another round of using up the TSA credit ( got the card in 2016) as I’m up for renewal on that then down shift to the Preferred. You make a compelling case that the annual fee is not worth it. Thanks for posting this podcast. I was in South Beach two weeks ago for Spring Break. Family was there early and out early so missed the madness.
