Very simple answer. Freedom gives 5% quarterly
Freedom unlimited gives 1.5 across the board. If you can sell at 1.4 as mentioned above right there is 2.1%
The reserve and preferred on food etc... There are plenty of amex cards as well......
But your right for simple sending and an easy cash out it is a good card
