Hope this helps. I was very happy to switch my point earning to focus on SPG. The only bad thing was that I did not do it sooner.
i think this is what sold me when i read your earlier msgs... forget staying at the hotels... it is for the regular purchases that i want to maximize on and clearly spg is there...
to this end, yesterday i opened a spg amex, and am planning to do the 20k starpoints with ameritrade this weekend.
so i should have about 30k starpoints by end of november.
thanks
