If I had to choose just one card to use for all of my points earnings, I am fairly confident that I would choose the American Express® Gold Card. There’s a lot of compelling reasons why I’d choose the Amex Gold over others.

The Business Platinum from American Express' benefits package will undergo some large changes come February of 2019, at the expense of an increased annual fee that will jump from $450 a year to $595 a year. For the extra $145, cardholders will get:

A year of complimentary Platinum Global Access at WeWork, a large co-working space chain with locations all over the world. Amex states that the value of this membership is $2,700.

REMINDER: If the new benefits described in this post don't seem worth it to you, apply for the Platinum card of your choice before March 30, 2017--Thursday of this week--and you will be grandfathered in to the $450 annual fee card. You'll get the new extra benefits and pay nothing for them for a year.
