Yeah, I just introduced myself to the world of VIP lounges a few weeks ago in SEA. I'm taking a hard look at the AMEX platinum this morning.

Regarding what I should do... I really need to get a new job. I like free booze and free nights/flights. What I like even better is seeing my wife and kid every day

Thanks for the tips, though ^ They're good ideas.
