And for anyone who has reasonable knowledge at redeeming Aeros smartly, selling points at 1.1cpm would also be a losing proposition as minimum value on an award booking is going to be 2cpp, if not double or quadruple that. So no thanks for the buying offer.

Preacher didn't just fall off a turnip truck. He knows what he's doing, flying around the world on the best F products known to humans, and the occasional pet pig.
Buying points at 1cpm certainly isn't a bad deal through the 5k sup. You guys may think you fly a lot on points, but compared to those of us who fly on points and in paid premium cabins, you don't.
