Decided to apply for the gold Amex during a sleepless night for the heck of it. I ended up getting approved and I immediately applied for the Platinum because why not?
I finished the trifecta of Business Blue Plus, Gold, and Platinum.
time to rack in the points for the next 3-6 months.

Congrats on the approval.

However, would you explain to me about the trifecta? I understand about the Gold and Platinum (Bus & Personal I think), but why BBP?

thanks.
