I am the average consumer. I signed up for an Amex card that gave me 90K Skymiles and I had 30K skymiles already.
It’s fine if you aren’t interested in “the hobby”. But if I have a choice between spending $40k - $60K for 60,000 points and spending $5000 in 3 months to get 60K points, I’m going to choose the latter.
