Do Better This, kids, is what’s known as a skill issue because those points are easily worth over 150k and I’m gonna show you how It’s also what’s known as being loud and wrong No, I’m not gonna show who posted this because he doesn’t deserve the attention he so desperately craves but I will use it as a teachable moment 1.2 million points should get you, at a MINIMUM, 12k of value This guy is using the value that AMEX would give him as a statement credit which is the lowest valuation possible at less than a cent per point The bare MINIMUM you should get for your points is 1 cent per point, which is there the initial 12k of value figure came from But if you use your points for what they’re really intended for which is travel, you should be getting a little more than double that at about 2.5 CPP You will not find deals like that within your credit card travel portal whether it be AMEX, Chase, Capital One or something else Instead, you want to use your credit cards transfer portal and transfer those points to an airline or hotel they’re partnered with to get even better redemptions Here’s what I mean: In this video I talked about how I got $42,000 worth of travel for 315k points plus about $1,500 in taxes Those were American Express points, by the way, so using the same deals that I got, which are readily available, you’d be looking at about $170,000 worth of value off of these same points he’s whining about only being worth $7,200.
