But what is magical about 120k? I have 120k UR points and I have 25k united points. Why wouldn't I transfer all 120K UR points to United and then I would have 145K?
Oh I'm sorry. You said you wanted to go to Europe, correct? 120k is good for 2 roundtrips to Europe in coach on United. No reason to transfer over the other 25k.

I am basically just trying to figure out if the ability to transfer really makes that big of a difference.
Absolutely. Fee waived first year as well.

I understand that. But even if you value Marriott points at .85 x UR points (I think I remember seeing that on flyertalk or nerdwallet or something), it's substantially more than the CSP.
I'm not really interested in comparing the two because it's complicated. Teddy enjoys typing out dissertations on the subject. Maybe he'll drop in when he gets done pretending to work.
UR points value is derived from the ability to transfer to partners. Simply put, I'd take 40k UR points all day over 70k Marriot points.

You're such a dick.
I'm not writing a damn thing either.
