This is Flyertalk after all - we live for optimising stuff like this

I am probably hitting Diamond early September, my qualifying period is until September 30th. Does this mean I can give away a gold card September 15th and then again October 1st. when my new period begins?
If this is true I am not getting one but two Gold card as gifts.
