You&#8217;ll earn your regular rewards +2% on cash back cards, and +2x on points earning cards.<br \/><br \/>Note: There&#8217;s some debate about whether multiple cards for the same company are each eligible for $2,500 in spend. My opinion is that you&#8217;re eligible for $2,500 per main card account, regardless of the associated business.<br \/><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Do this <span style=\"text-decoration: underline\" class=\"ek-underline\">never<\/span>:<\/strong> <a class=\"ek-link\" href=\"https:\/\/bilt.marriott.com\/en-us\">Bilt points can now be transferred to Marriott at a 1:1 ratio<\/a>, or for masochists that hate value, a 20,000:25,000 ratio in exactly 20,000 point increments. Frankly this is almost worse than redeeming Bilt points directly for a statement credit. If you&#8217;d like 100 bonus Bilt Points as a consolation prize for having to read this news, you can link your Marriott Bonvoy account to Bilt and you&#8217;ll get &#8217;em.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Happy Thursday!<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-editorskit-rounded\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/milesearnandburn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/image-3.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8551\" style=\"width:420px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/milesearnandburn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/image-3.png 1024w, https:\/\/milesearnandburn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/image-3-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/milesearnandburn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/image-3-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/milesearnandburn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/image-3-768x768.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\" style=\"font-size:14px\">MEAB&#8217;s Thursday demeanor.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apparently today I chose chaos by barking out orders at you like a 70s business man in a plaid suit with his feet on the<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_editorskit_title_hidden":false,"_editorskit_reading_time":0,"_editorskit_is_block_options_detached":false,"_editorskit_block_options_position":"{}","footnotes":""},"categories":[64],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8550","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-points"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/milesearnandburn.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8550","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/milesearnandburn.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/milesearnandburn.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/milesearnandburn.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/milesearnandburn.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8550"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/milesearnandburn.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8550\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8553,"href":"https:\/\/milesearnandburn.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8550\/revisions\/8553"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/milesearnandburn.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8550"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/milesearnandburn.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8550"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/milesearnandburn.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8550"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
