I think it makes sense to keep up re-earning Globalist for at least a couple of more years, but at some point I will step away from Hyatt a little to use some of my points in other programs. I am sitting on 3.5 million points across all my accounts, I just find Chase UR/Hyatt by far the easiest to spend for high value.

I'm sorry if this has come across as bragging. That was not my intention. I was genuinely curious if anyone else was taking the same approach as me to exclusively book high-end resorts on points. It seems that I may be an outlier. I think people that churn cards to the level I do are more likely to cash them out for $, but that takes some of the fun out of it for me.
I sincerely doubt that anyone else doing this would be willing to say so on a public forum. Most posters would decide that bringing attention to this activity doesn't help its long term prospects.
