The plunk factor.

So short answer is I would be shocked at just how many options there are today.

And it is still a bonanza for consumers.

So if you're listening to this, do not think the points game is over.

You know, Bilt and Cardless.

Bilt has built up a huge—and full disclosure, I'm a Bilt advisor investor from the beginning.

But Bilt has completely opened up a new market.

We also have, I mean, Wells Fargo is still in the game.

I do think what they're dealing with now is trying to cull it a little bit.
