Depends how daft he is . I wouldn't get out of bed for £200k a year but you still wouldn't catch me paying £1,800 a year for a Cent card.

I whack the vast bulk of my card spend through a good old BMI Mastercard (no longer available, but 2 BMI miles per £1). Put £500k a year on that and you're getting 1 million BMI miles each year - that is good for EIGHTEEN First Class *A return flights to the US on Cash & Miles (9 F returns if you do 'all miles'). And that is every year. Beats those Centurion perks and the card is only £60 a year!

If you think having a Centurion card in your wallet impresses your friends, I promise you its not as impressive as flying them First Class to New York for a weekend.
