I'm a lot further away from that for the Centurion pass so not even going to try and my spouse already has it unlocked for 2024 anyway.

I can get a lot more for $30k spend than just 40k points. I have NLL offers for Plat Biz (130k/$15k spend so can do 2 of those for 260k points) or Gold Biz (125k/$10k spend so 3 of those will get me 375k points).

Even if I don't open any new cards I can add employees cards to existing Plat Biz accounts for 15k points/$4k spend up to 5 cards so $20k spend will get me 75k points - $20k is 2/3 of the $30k spend and I get almost double the amount of bonus points (75k vs 40k they offered me).
