Black AMEX
This is for those who have it I suppose. If you live in the US or Canada, how did you get sufficient purchases on your AMEX to unlock black? So few stores or restaurants accept the card and half the time when they do it triggers security and locks it.
My motivation for wanting it is business travel and meetings. I know you have to show money to make money.
Edit: Thank you everyone for your insightful thoughts, feedback and ideas. I'm reading all of them even if I don't reply. It is very challenging to have offline discussions on these topics with anyone so I wholeheartedly aporeciate doing so here.
