Chase Sapphire preferred, x2 freedom, freedom unl, x2 Ink cash, x2 ink unlimited.
BOA cash, Citi Biz AA, Barclays AA red, x2ArrivalPlus
Refer each other from the freedom and get freedom flexes

For SUB probably Citi Premier or Ink Preferred. Amex Bonvoy Business is also a strong offer.

Why is it worth having 2 Sapphires and Platinums?

Correct. That's why I have so many freedoms
Common sense is not a gift, it is a punishment.
Because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

Citi premier may be interesting.
Need new card/s to spend this black Friday.
I've probably spent 10, 20k the past few black Fridays. so looking for best spend/SUB ratio. Ink Preferred has great SUB but very high min spend. is it even worth it?
I mostly get cards for SUB. not for card perks. Hotel and even airline cards aren't good for me unless it's an amazing offer. best is transferable points.

Refer each other from the freedom and get freedom flexes
That's 60K (20k + 10k x 2) UR for $1K (500 x 2) spend

for 60k UR: 2 credit pulls, 5/24 slots and chance of shut down for self referral. worth it?

If I make a claim for a stolen item with the Amex Hilton Aspire card, will they ask me for a police report ? What about a lost item claim ?

ftfy, If you aren't planning on getting any other Chase cards, probably.

I have not heard of shutdowns for spousal referral, nor even of an official policy banning them.

Not on Amex business cards.

So any RAT issues with getting additional employee cards for minors (Amex)?

Amex plat, x2 Hilton aspire, Marriot Bonvoy, biz plat, x2 biz blue plus, blue cash.

Thanks for the suggestions. I think we can get more than just Freedom Flex and Citi Premier.
Any other ideas? Looking mainly for transferable points or cashback unless there's a really great airline or hotel card offer.

Amex business gold 90k and Barclays Aviator business are other options in addition to the aforementioned Amex bonvoy business.

I personally wouldn't waste a slot and pull on a flex.
