The $50K Average, Amex vs. Airlines & Spirit's Bankruptcy | EP 146

Edgardo and Shiv kick things off with a candid reflection on what it actually takes to get better at golf — and why raw reps alone won't cut it without deliberate coaching. From the fairway, the conversation shifts to the used car market, where Shiv breaks down the depreciation math on new vs. used and shares his hunt for the right sedan in a world where the average new car is pushing $50K. The guys then get into the credit card game — Amex Platinum vs. airline-specific cards, how to actually calculate the value of perks, and why the welcome bonus is usually where the real money is. They wrap with a timely take on Spirit Airlines' collapse, what it means for budget travelers, and whether the free market will course-correct or just hand the big carriers a blank check to raise prices.
