sorry, I inferred you already had it. there are 4 of them (plus and premier, bus and pers versions). they give you 50k points. only real difference between any of them is the annual fee being slightly higher on one version. get one of them. actually I maybe can refer you to one of them (not sure which ones I currently have but at least one of the business ones and one of the personal ones).

Have a Chase dilemma.

Ms. Nicname has a CSP that's about to hit her one-year annual fee 2/17/18. My question is this, since she won't be able to open a CSR until 2/17/19, would it be better to open a rotating freedom (using me as a referall) and use that for a year while hanging on to UR points, then open a CSR... OR just keep the CSP for a year and then open the CSR?

EDIT to add: I opened a rotating Freedom a few months ago and cancelled my CSP in hopes of getting a CSR and screwed myself because of not realizing the waiting period.
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

I just cancelled my United card, and they refunded the annual fee. Are those United Club passes that I got in an email a month ago still going to work?

Chase Sapphire Preferred seems like a good way to get my feet wet. What say you, CC nerds?

yeah.  may as well get a freedom too.  you'll probably need it to stash your points at some point, might as well start the clock ticking asap.

Haven't visited in awhile but looked at my spreadsheet and I'm almost out from under my 5/24 block in June...excited to get back into the game.

Will move my CSP to Freedom, get a new CSR....anything else of note I should get (don't need hotel points)
