Where do I stand as a DDFer

Meet CV. He is playing his game on a whole different level than most here in the forums.

...but they are those worthless TYP's.

I am focusing my efforts on UR/UA points. I amassed a bunch of SPG points but the bonuses and earning opportunities are so much more limited.

Personal: SP visa and mc  80k, Freedom at least 10k (possibly 30k) Biz:IB 50k, IP 50k, IClassic  20k, ICash 20k total 230k only one of each

The big AMEX bonuses come with huge annual fees

My wife and i are consistently getting offers of 50 or 75k for the gold 1st yr free. maybe u could opt in for prescreened offers (i think u can do it by calling)

I can't even figure out what to do with SouthWest points.

I use them when flights are cheap. for instance i have flown rt lga-mdw for 5800 points. so, unlike other points they have value even when flights are cheap (i dont like spending any money on travel even when it's cheap s/t to do with keeping my spending in check )

On the surface this would seem to be the case. You need to remember in the first year you will be making n00b mistakes and have a lot to learn. After a few years you will have it down to a science. It is ten times easier for me know then when I first started.

Very valid point.
