That was one of the alternatives I'd come up with but had discounted it as 'too high' to make sense. In short, all other things being equal (and they aren't) it's either:
  • $94,666 minimum spend to at least cover the extra annual fee in points earn;
  • $946,664 for the extra earn of 0.125 to generate the extra points required to get to parity with the 'do nothing' position.
Thanks for the additional insight. I'll now wait to hear back from Amex re waiver in January then make a final decision.

Happy to hear about Centurion Event Invites/Experiences in the meantime :)

It's definitely the higher number if you assume all benefits are worth $0.
The lower number would be comparing it to paying cash. Which would never happen, I assume.
Using the same logic I've decided to ditch all Amex and just add them to the churn cycle as I can earn more through churning than the differential in annual fees (I find the the travel credits annoying at best).
