Workflowy. You won't know what you're missing until you try it.

It's not. If it was free, on the other hand...

I just got a 7 day free trial at transunion plus after I checked my CR from Annualcreditreport.com.

They work off the new system and I have a 905 (out of 950). I assume that is good. Needed before I go apply very soon.

Well since this is anonymous, let's brag about it ;) Credit history is about a year old (got a social 2 years ago), got approved for 12 cards including many signature and reward cards for +65k credit. Have high spending though (careful about credit utilization), so it's probably why I'm not having a hard time.

Now since you seem to know your stuff, for my next round of applications in a month, I am looking to apply to Amex. Already have the basics (cash, travel everyday). I am thinking about Platinum + Gold + SPG. What do you think? Should I do that or get another card such as AA instead of Gold or Platinum?

MR vs AA. Keep in mind Amex personal cards is one time bonus. No great signup bonus at the moment.
