The "True Value" Trap

Never assign full value to perks you wouldn't naturally pay for. If a card offers a free ₹10,000 golf membership but you don't play golf, the true value of that perk to you is ₹0.
Many premium cards offer fee waivers if you cross an annual spend milestone (e.g., spend ₹3 Lakhs to waive ₹3,000 fee). If you hit this, your Annual Fee is 0!
