at the start of '15 I didn't even think about it.. lots of travel early in the year .. hit 35,000 pqm in Q1 and then got let go. Spent summer off .. started new job then travel increased early Q3. Hit gold easily enough.. but had a high spend on the 1st quarter travel so had pqd for Plat. Purchased additional 2k pqm via accelerator to put me at 76,xxx and qual for Plat. This year.. I'll probably rely on chase spend waiver for Plat again. With the travel booked I should easily hit plat PQM. Don't think 1K is possible due to $12K spend requirement and no chase waiver.
