The year in which I finally cracked Platinum (2002) I spent $37,186 (it did include an F RTW ticket for $15,154 that allowed me to go from 645 to 2015 SC's).
I have spent $14,338 and $14,464 renewing Plat in 2003 and 2004. YTD 2005 has only been $4,372 to achieve 325 SC's (mostly Domestic K class) and have budgeted to spend another $6,000 which should see me get Plat again.
