The creator shows his American Express Centurion 'Black Card' and explains the perks to determine if the annual fee is worth it. He displays exclusive marketing materials sent to him, including an invitation for the inaugural Orient Express sailing yacht trip, and details the associated benefits like onboard credit, wine tasting, and a free Louis Vuitton bag.

Personally, my 5 favorite membership benefits:
1. Guaranteed late check out
2. Exclusive events & swag, call up the concierge & even the busiest restaurants become available. We used this in London once to get into a " you can't sit with us " membership club . ( it was wack we left quickly)
3. Room upgrades only available for Centurion membership, for example I got upgraded to a $7,500 night room at The Ritz in Lake tahoe on New Years Eve, just because.
4. Private lounges & skip the lines at almost any airport, they'll even drive you on a golf cart to your terminal sometimes.
5. It doesn't make your PP bigger but people sure do treat you like it does 馃ぃ.
Bonus benefit:
A. Bar tenders pay attention.
B. The milestone! Honestly, I don't know how many 35 year old 馃シs got one. But admittedly, there's something that feels accomplishing being Rare.
How do you get it an invite? To this day I still have no clue, but outside of spending a lot i do think personal brand may have helped me , but that's just me speculating .

I always wanted to know stuff like this so I'm gonna share. But the Amex Black Card. First off I think it's like $10,000 a year and you have to be invited to use the card. But what are the perks that actually come with it? Well, every now and then, they will mail you these black envelopes, and they give you, like, really cool free stuff. And so, take this. This was the big promo on this one. This is an invitation to be among the first to go on the Orient Express. So this is known for really luxurious railways in other countries, but this is... They're doing a yacht and they kinda break down... Let me show you kind of the whole experience. You know, what it looks like, how many best, only 54 suites, so it's super exclusive. And then they tell you all the free stuff that you get. $500 on onboard credit, wine and tea tasting, plus they give you all this other cool stuff. Louis Vuitton bag, $4,000 in, you know, exclusive value plus. They give you this entire, like, brochure magazine of all of basically the best places in the world to travel. And then they show you, like, all your bribes that you get. So anyways, I was always curious about stuff like this that motivated me, so I wanted to share with y'all. Peace.
