I don't have any credit cards anymore. Hubbie paid them and helped me cut them up....... I have a debit card and no debt. Debt makes you a slave to whomever you owe.

I have 6 credit cards that I use rarely just to keep open lines of credit. It helped me qualify for my 4.5% 100K loan. (:

I use two credit cards to pay for everything, including rent. However, I pay them off completely on the due date. It's a good cash-flow tactic.

Those cut up cards may still be open lines of credit. Check it out.

I did the same thing. Now, my only debt is my home mortgage and I hope to have that wiped out in the next 5 years.

I'll be completely debt free.

Just a quick lesson, the Titanium card is not a credit card. It is a charge card that has to be paid in full upon receipt of the bill each month.
