We’ve got a special “double episode” of the No Annual Fee version of the Milenomics² Podcast this week.
In this episode we do a deep dive into our personal card strategies with Amex. For this exercise:
- Amex is limiting us to a total of 5 active *credit* cards (personal and business, charge cards don’t count)
- We already have/have had a lot of the best Amex cards (so we’re going deeper into the Amex portfolio than someone newer to the game otherwise would)
- We want to make use of Amex’s generous referral program

You can visit our referral page for links to these cards, but read this first before using someone else’s referral links.
You’re probably better off with spousal referral, or trading referral links with a friend.
