While I agree with the above points concerning the merits of the BBP and business cards in general, downgrading to the Green is also a good choice, with great earnings on travel for a relatively modest fee. Plus, if you decide to keep it for a year or so you may find yourself with an offer to upgrade to Gold or back to Plat — those have netted me 80-100K MR in the past.
