I haven't heard of anyone holding 2 Personal GOLD concurrently (vs. I know people have 2 CIBC Aerogold concurrently)

I personally would cancel, and re-apply after 3 months (or 6 months)
or alternate between Personal Gold and Biz Gold

You need at least ONE AMEX MR card active to not lose your AMEX MR account, unless you want to transfer all out every time. Keep that in mind

There's no rush really, I'm sure the 25K Welcome bonus is here to stay
