In the beginning

The quest started in 2007 - just a humble 25 year old working away and graduated from University only 2 years previously. One day I heard of this wonderful card that has all these amazing super powers that only the rich and famous has - getting that last minute table reservation - jumping through the line at the big clubs - and all these super powers came from this single card - the American Express Black Card. 

No its called Centurion you big ape. Silly VISA and their silly Black Card - there's just no comparison. 

I've now been a Centurion holder for 4 months. Lets just say the road to Centurion has been hard - but not impossible. And what about the card's magic powers?

It's why I've got this blog. Well in addition to the other thing I do - being a network consultant and all - I'm going to be very honest with my experiences now that I'm in the "Black Card Club". I've had some good times, some bad times, and there's been some "What The FUCK" moments.

For the moment, the statement "The moment you go Black, you never go back!" is still ringing true for me. Well... don't take that statement in the wrong way. But the Centurion is just 1 of many elite products out there. But given it is invite only, its not leaving my wallet anytime soon!
