<prompt> Human: Hi,So it turns out my property managers take credit cards. They tack on a 27 fee a month to accept it and Ill be able to use my Southwest credit card to pay my rent. Im going to spend this money though a check anyways. Basically Im asking if you would spend 27 a month to use your credit card to pay rent and rack up the miles. Just curious on your opinions. Thanks!Assistant: Only if youre direct cost for purchasing miles is more than 27. Edited for clarityHuman: My reasoning is if youre already spending money. Wouldnt you spend 27 more a month to turn that money already going to the landlord into miles? My half of the rent is 775. So Id just add 27 to that.  <response>: is 775 points worth 27?How many points do you need to buy a flight?If you go by 20k miles for a 300 ticket its 1.5 cents per point. Assuming 1 point per dollar spent, youll make 11.625 from using your CC but pay 27 to use it. With 2 pointsdollar youll still be in the hole at 23 earned.
