dolariGet a credit card, and use it and suddenly you're completely innundated with offers. I'm half tempted to apply for every last one of them, max them out with traveler's checks, and fund my SRS on my the death of my credit rating. However I've been dutifully shredding them all knowing full well I can barely afford a second one.
Ut's amazing the amounts of offers I've gotten, and they ways they get you to think you've got a card (I've got so many "THIS COULD BE YOURS!" cards I'm thinking of making a collection). I have one card, it's a $200 limit, and I'm doing fine with that. But now - I got an offer I'd been waiting for.
My bank. The bank that has seen every single overdraft I've made (and been responsible for more than a few of them through dodgy transaction sequencing) has made the mistake of offering me a card. I applied for it and will use both the cards to be emergency money for when I go to Seattle. Once I'm settled into Seattle - I'll kill my non-bank card and keep my bank card.
Or keep it and fund my SRS with it, one of the two......
