I gathered that the SPG AmEx was more of a once-every-two-years deal, hence my suggestion of OP / Mr. OP getting one of the four cards every six months. The Citi Business is apparently churnable every 90 days. The Citi Personal cards about every 18 months.

OP, you may wish to check Credit Boards or your credit reports for info on which credit reports Citi, AmEx, and others pull for you/in your area. Unfortunately for me, both AmEx and Citi pull Experian for me, so I max out at 6 cards semi-annually.
