    New Amex statement credits

    I remember it well - 350/75. Had to spend 3 nights at the Crowne Plaza in Melbourne and broke them up into 3 separate bookings to maximize credits. Could do with a repeat offer as Mrs SS needs to spend a couple of nights there again in mid-May.

    Qantas Points Club Discussion

    Mrs SS has earnt a Qantas award choice of 50SCs or 8k points. She has already maxed out on the 20k points from flying but wonder if the award points will count towards PC qualification or whether they count in the flying bucket. Anyone know for sure?

    QFF Platinum requesting release of extra Classic Reward seats?

    In my experience; 1). Yes. 2). No idea but has never worked for Mrs SS requesting for me or the cygnets. Only successes have been for herself.

    Superannuation Discussion + market volatility

    I have an acquaintance who spends his life converting (or trying to) taxable super into non-taxable. He is particularly bitter that super growth income is treated as a taxable component. I have told him so many times to just enjoy his retirement.
