Love the comment how the shutdowns were concocted by FT so people stop applying/using the BC card.
But hey, maybe its true, you never know.

Define hard?

IMO
Hard = 100k/m
Mega hard = 1m/m (Dk if possible with one card)

Your definition of Hard is a full time job. Your definition of Mega hard is like having a 10-income household.

My bad. I thought you were insinuating that to accomplish 100k/m would be a full time job.

Hmm...8-10 hours a month, so about 10-12k an hour, doesn't seem doable, but what do I know.

Yeah that's why I took 1k out of the 5k cash back for 100k spend. Didn't pull out a calculator but I assume I'm close.

Np yeah I mean in terms of money. I wouldn't be surprised if some hit it that hard but that would be mega imo lol.

In terms of time, we are talking about what, 200 $500 cards from drugstores in a month, with their various hard and soft policies, that's an extremely tough ask these days. I agree with a couple hours a week.

After one has done their due diligence (which is where the real time comes in), one can pretty easily MS well in excess of 6 figures per month in, I'd say, 15-20 hours a month.

There are also other methods whereby one can easily do >500K+/mo in less 10 hours.

In fact, there are a number of such people out there... one of whom I met last night with another DDF'er.

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

How do you get that figure?
Just picking up 200 cards= 10 cards per trip x 20 trips, plus emptying out 100k in Walmart or depositing 100k MO, IMO takes longer than 10 hours.

10 cards per trip?

Can easily do 30-40.

And unload twice that many.

Not everything requires trips to walmart or banks...

40 cards in 1 visit at a drugstore or supermarket? 20 grand put onto one credit card? Can't imagine what store or gc you are going to unless the cashier is your mom and you go with several drivers licenses. If I could do that I would spend 100k in minutes, forget hours.
