AMEX Platinum is old prestige. People, including myself, have been conditioned to believe that the Platinum is the pinnacle of having "made it". I tell you, the requirement that it be PIF at statement cut, keeps me grounded as I realize my limitations on spending...Who needs an Amex Platinum, a JP Morgan Reserve card, or a CSR card, when Amex Centurion is the "Rolls-Royce" of prestige cards, lol?
If people want a prestige card and have the income to justify it, why not go for real deal?
It's a HUGE jump from C$R/Prestige/Platinum to Centurion lol.

Huge jump!! The AF on the Platinum is $450 while the AF on the Centurion is $2500. When one first signs up for the Centurion, it's $7500. Naaa... The Platinum is good enough for me.
I'm surprised AMEX let me have the Platinum and PRG, but my spending and payments track record had shown that I'm not a wacko, so they're good to me. Btw, they're both above my tax bracket.
