I have the no fee AMEX HHonor and spent over $20K by March. The Gold status earned would last thru Mar 2015.
Unless the status earned this late in the year would carry thru March 2016, I would think earning the status in the 1st quarter of the year is more beneficial than earning it in the last quarter of the year.
