I carry the following:
- Citi Executive World Elite (cheaper lounge access than paying cash as PLT)
- Citi Select Business (two of these for two separate business)

My purchases are wholesale goods, so they have not in the past qualified for anyone's 'bonus' categories for cash back.

It seems like if I spend 200k on a new discover card - I'll end up with $6,000.00 after the first 12 months.

If I spend the same amount with an American Airlines branded card - I'll have 200,000 miles - which when booking business class US-Europe will equate to around $2,000.00=$2,500.00 in value.

Given my spending and my goals - how would you recommend I purchase goods and services?

Thanks,

Pakse
