No you can't, because I have over 2 million miles (spread across several airlines) and over 1 million hotel points (spread across a number of hotel programs)
right now (ie,
unredeemed).
So by the way you guys meaninglessly combine all miles and hotel points into one number, I have
over 3 million total for one person!
Not that I got all of this anywhere near just last year, not that I got it all of it from credit cards, and I'm
not counting what I earned and
already redeemed.
I haven't kept track, but i'm guessing that I've redeemed close to a million miles and probably at least 500k hotel points over the last 9 years (ie, since I started collecting anything beyond Southwest RR 1.0 awards), plus 110k Capital One Venture "miles" (points) last year.
Having said that, I'm sure there are plenty of FTers who have me beat on that particular metric. Just not you!
