👉 LINK IN BIO to the full video! Would you pay $15,000 in year one for a credit card? The American Express Centurion Card (aka the Black Card) costs a reported $10,000 initiation fee plus a $5,000 annual fee. But what do you actually get for that price? I spent hours researching the Centurion Card, digging through cardholder reports and data points to find out whether the perks, concierge service, status benefits, and credits are really worth it in 2026. Do you think the Centurion Card is worth $15,000, or would you rather keep the Platinum Card and invest the difference elsewhere? Curious to hear your thoughts! #amexcenturion #blackcard #americanexpress #amex
