Right. That's the thing. You need to be a long time Amex customer. I am. My card says Cardholder since 1989. You need to spend a buttload of money on the card. My monthly nut doesn't cut it. Hell, my mother's monthly nut doesn't cut it. And then there's so magic voodoo thing that needs to happen.
The only person I know who actually carries a black card is a real tool. Uncle Ron's card was platinum, last time he took me to dinner anyway.
