Huh...? So, what were all these trials and tribulations for??
I hope you aren't planning to save what you earned for your grandchildren, or even your girls, with the degradation that is inevitable. I'm not you, but if I were, I'd use those golden miles without delay. They'll never be more valuable than they are it this moment.* And any really good international economy fare is very unlikely to let you upgrade (I don't know QANTAS, of course).
Anyway, I'll try to get over to New York if it's still you're intent.
*For example, at the beginning of this year, the "price" of all international business class free awards went up by the equivalent of a domestic roundtrip (e.g., 25K). But you knew this.
