What is the card for the affluent elite? Perhaps the Amex Centurion card, but it's absurd.

FWIW, a while back I asked in the Luxury Travel forum about the preferred credit card and the CSR was the leading answer.
Many already have Amex Platinum. When CSR was $450 it was easier to justify holding 2 premium cards but not now.
