View Full Version : how many credit cards do you own?
jessicaroy
I at present own 4 credit cards but honestly I try to keep only 2 in my pocket at any time so that I can maintain check on my spending.

I have 3. One for business, one that i use for everything else, and one I rarely use, but keep on hand in case AMEX is not accepted.

Just 2. One is a Chase Rewards card, and that really is the only one I use. I got a Wells Fargo card just because I figured why not since I just recently moved all my stuff there. But that card will just collect dust, plus i have an ATM debit card which is only used to get cash. Both cards have a limit of around $10,000 limit, and I rarely charge more than $2,000 in any given month (I have earned maybe $400 in rebates this year). Why anyone needs more than 1-2 credit cards is beyond me.

19 lines of credit. My goal is to reach a $1,000,000 limit, max them, and run off to Antigua. I just heard they have CD rates of over 7% there.

I only have 3: one reward card for regular use and the other 2 for emergencies and building a long-standing credit for a good report. :)

I only have 1 credit card, which I rarely use. I rarely use that because the money is just going to come out of my checking account anyways, why not just pay with cash and thats what I do. Its a lot less of a hassle and save my time and money in the long run.

I have 3 credit cards. I think a maximum of two credit cards are sufficient to meet more than your basic needs. I am going to cancel two cards which i am not using and applying for other credit card. I think its better to choose the right credit card by credit card comparison (http://www.billshrink.com/).

Most people have two credit cards. One is VISA and the other is MASTERCARD. I have three. The other one is American Express.
A lot of people got into trouble with credit card debts. I hope you will not be one of them. Use your credit cards only if you can pay for them. Never buy anything you cannot afford. Clear your balance each and every month. Never use them to obtain cash in advance, because the interest is very high and it starts calculating as soon as you get the cash.

Go to Hong Kong...just a few days ago a couple from New Zealand run off with $6 million (http://edition.cnn.com/2009/WORLD/asiapcf/05/21/new.zealand.millionaires/index.html) and authorities think they're in HK.
