It's been discussed before and I am to lazy to explain all the benefits
Anyone who's been around here for a bit knows the huge benefits automatically.

LOl... Love some of those questions....

E.G. So Dansdeals said that Starwood American Express is the best card... I heard that the Platinum Card is the best card?

Most posts go like this:
Hi, I don't know if this has been discussed before, but I didn't find it after searching,
I did a 3/BM for the SP, Freedom and Ink bold, the SP was instantly approved but the freedom they say it could take up to 30 days for a response in the mail. What does that mean? I called the reconsideration line Dan mentioned (thanks so much Dan! You are so kind! You helped me so much!) and the lady said she can move credit from my old continental card, so she approved it. But she didn't want to approve me for the Ink.
My questions:
1. Does the 3/BM work with personal + business?
2. What should I tell them to get the IB approved?
Thanks in advance!
Larry.
Love me or hate me. I still love you.

Agree. At least.

Simply to get posts you have to read thru threads and comment. So hopefully the time they have 20+ posts they will have a little knowledge and would have searched a little

I was sent here from the comments section of the DansDeals seminar link. Dan, any idea how long the event will run? Around how many people will be there?

Is there any way we could bring audio recording devices so I don't need to take written notes? I would like to pay attention to what is being said and review the audio later if I missed something.

Also, are we supposed to get confirmation of our RSVP, or is the sending of $10 thru amazon payments sufficient?

Thanks Dan!

I would guess it will run for a couple hours.
I'm told there is seating for about 115-120.
No recordings, sorry!
No confirmations, just state your name to get a $10 gift card.

I don't believe you will reach 100, or even close to 100*.

I don't want to sound pessimistic, nor would I want someone laying out for a place, and get stuck with it.

*unless getting paid for it.
110 paid reserved seats in less than 48 hours :)

Is there VIP seating, or is it first-come first serve? Will there be any media in attendance (like to take pictures and report on the event)?

For starters I'd rather the internets not be privy in case my first ever public speaking engagement turns out to be a bust ;)
And 2nd of all when things are being recorded less things can be talked about...

I wonder if there's a way to temporarily block AP payments, I guess he could at least take down the AP email address.
