Incase any of you guys want to watch my other centurion videos, the name on youtube is Get to the point, i have bunch of centurion videos related to how much i spent to get my personal centurion card invite, and another video where i talk about the invitation call and what they asked me, and unboxing video of my centurion card.
awesome video on the spend details for personal cent. thank you for making that. are you willing to share any of the spend details by category and percentage? for example X% on lux items, travel, airfare, online merchants, daily living etc. this seems to be a key factor as well.

very true. i just dont know how much of geo factors into the selection process. i know it does for UA GServices, but for amex cent, i believe spending category plays a greater role vs geo. and obviously personal vs business is totally different.
