cindasl asked:


I have a few personal credit cards and I want to consolidate them. I am also self-employed, but I dont’ have a business credit card; although I get LOTS of ads for them in the mail. I’ve always wondered, what is the difference? Are there different rules or fees? Can you only use them for business purchases? Do you have to spend a certain amount to keep them?

Any advice appreciated…

What is the purpose of student credit cards?

starfishblues asked:


I mean, I understand the concept of building credit and everything, but what is the point of student credit cards? What is the purpose? I’m sorry if this is a silly question, but I don’t really get it.

And can you trade them in after you’re no longer a student for a “real” credit card? Do people just keep them forever? I always thought closing accounts lowered your credit score?

I am going to ask another question regarding which CC should I add to my credit card profile to add to my rewards. I have excellent credit, pay my balance in full each month, and I use my CC to pay for everything I can to rack up points/miles etc.

I am at a point where I want to increase my points and miles so there are some options. The question is, what is too much. I basically share a VISA with my wife, and have an older VISA that i keep. I realize that you should keep older credit cards for history. I want to add at least one AM/EX either the Starwood points, or the Delta Miles. I also might switch our Cap1 card to the signature to get 2 points for every $1 spent, instead of 1.25 for $1. That is a new card, not a switch. And recently, I have received letters for UNITED miles (20,000 bonus) and AA Miles (21,000 Bonus). I would love to use those just to add to my miles on those flights. Could I add 3-4 cards without hurting my excellent credit? I will not rack up debt.

I have 4 credit cards (limits are 1000, 3300, and two 500s) and was considering getting rid of one 500 credit card. Should I pay the whole thing off and KEEP it or GET RID of it??

mony ou asked:


I have 4 credit cards with approx. $25,000.00 worth of debt on them. I would like to get ahold of a non-profit debt counseling service in order to get rid of the high interest rates and pay them off alot sooner instead of only paying the interest and the over the limit fees. I have not used these cards for the past 5-6 years and the accounts are closed except for me making payments on them. I am not even touching the actual principal that I owe, although, I have probably paid enough on these cards to have actually paid off the actual principal. How is the best way to do this and what are some reputalbe non-profit agencies that will help achieve this? I have also heard that some credit cards will take a settlement on some accounts. Is this a good idea and how much of the amount owed do they usually want? I realize that this may hurt my credit rating but to be honest with you it isn’t worth squat now, so what is the difference? Does the debt consolidation hurt your credit as well?

I Love My Sailor asked:


I have four credit cards and I want to put the amount owed all onto one credit card with a lower intrest. I also don’t have very good credit. Any help would be useful. Thanks.
The amount owed is not more than 1,500 between the four. I always pay double of what the minimum payment is.

I have two credit cards with debt of 7,000 with both cards combined. Is there a way that I can combine those credit cards and lower the payment and pay them in one lump sum? I just want to get rid of these cards so I can move on with my financial growth.

How many credit cards should a person have?

Kat asked:


I know having too many is not good for a person’s credit score and looks bad to those checking this credit. But not having any credit (such as cards) is not good either. So is it best to have more than one card?

Nikita asked:


I am trying to rebuild my credit after ID theft, a couple of problems that were mine and years of basically not having any credit reported. (I primarily use my debit card and pay cash for everything). I make good money now and am trying to rebuild in order to purchase a condo in the next couple of years. My good accounts (rental, club, cable, cell, etc.) have not reported my good credit. So how many cards should I take out that will help boost my credit score but not hinder my credit. Thank you!

I want to advertise a product via the internet, for the international market. It can be bought only by a Credit Card.

Therefore I would like to know, per each country in the world, how many Credit Cards are there, or: How many Credit Cards per resident in each country?
