Is an 80K offer for Platinum worth it?

Offers & Deals

I have been trying to get an elevated offer on the personal Platinum for weeks and trying all of the tricks but have only ever gotten an 80k offer. I wanted to get the Platinum in general because I think I’ll use the credits naturally and it will pair well with the Gold card I already have, and am looking to add a card/get a SUB now because I have upcoming expenditures for my wedding and a few other things and want to bank points to use towards our honeymoon in June.

Is it worth just taking the 80k offer to get a card that will have long term benefit and add to the ~250k MR points I already have to go towards honeymoon travel or try another non Amex card for now and hold off for a mailer/targeted offer with a higher bonus?
