So I was steadily approaching the 75k spend target but about 6 weeks ago the website counter froze and hasn’t updated since then. Anyone else seen this or know what’s going on?

We’re looking into a 7 day Alaska cruise and debating between these two ships. Itinerary and price are pretty similar.

Any opinions on either ship? We’ve never sailed with either Princess or HAL before.

We’d be a group ranging from grandparents to elementary kids. We’re looking for a more quiet chill vibe to see the scenery. Our kids just hang out with us so kids club stuff isn’t very important to us.

Just thought I’d share my renewal timeline since it’s a bit interesting.

Got Nexus in 2016 but stupidly let it expire in 2021. Reapplied in early June 2026. Application went through as a renewal, not new application.

Approved July 18 and got the new card August 2. No interview required.

When did you start really spending all this money. I’m a full private practice partner and finally starting to make more money then I know what to do with.

401k, spouses 403b, and HSA all maxed out. Everything else getting dumped into an index fund brokerage account.

We just flew business class to Asia and some of my partners think we’re crazy for spending the $20k it cost. If not now then when are we supposed to enjoy this??
