Why am I using the both the AMEX Gold and Chase Sapphire Reserve for restaurant spend?
I need to diversify my points. I have way more Membership reward points that I do Ultimate rewards points at the moment.
What am I using the Fidelity Visa and Chase Freedom Unlimited for Everyday spend?
Again this is to diversify my points holding.
