Amex Gold vs Blue Cash: Which Wins?

You’re throwing away $300 a year if you choose the wrong Amex card! The American Express Gold Card features a hefty annual fee of $250, but it can earn you 4X points on dining and 3X on flights — that’s a win for foodies and travelers. But if you’re just starting out, the Blue Cash Preferred is only $95 a year and offers 6% cash back at supermarkets. If you spend just $1,600 a year on groceries, you’ll pocket $96 back, plus 3% on gas! So, which should you pick? If you’re a beginner, the Blue Cash Preferred is a no-brainer. Don’t let that extra fee eat into your budget! Switch it up today!
