For whatever it's worth, with my platinum AmEx I got 15,000 per person for referring them so that helped quite a bit, once I got my gold it only refers 10,000 per.

Also as to credit card spend... the platinum version has 1.25 points up to $25k and 1.5 points beyond it so it is not actually as hard as you would think to get to those kind of numbers. It is all personal but there were a few single large transactions that helped generate that. (Gotta love paying Paypal for something, off your Amex card!)

Mark
so with those points, is that taxes in?
