I got a Mastercard with $5000, I got a visa with $5000, I had lines of credit with the bank, etc,etc. I think it took me about 5 years to raise $30,000 in debt. Once I made over a couple hundred thousand working the mortgage industry, I paid it all off. I recently paid of my AMEx. when I turned 18, I was able to get stupid credit.

The card was pre-approved with a $3000 limit. All my dog had to do was make the phone call to activate it. Not soon after my 8 year old daughter recieved a Visa card in the mail, also pre-approved. My wife and i were getting, on average, about 3-4 credit card offers a WEEK. I had an AMEX card for about 5 years. i got rid of it because they started charging me an annual fee & the NO limit was too tempting.

For my company I have an AMEX CENTURION CARD. You pay $5000 to register in the beggining and you MUST spend $250,000 a year on it to keep it. It makes sense only if you are heavily into travel or always purchasing for your company. My personal Amex card's limit was changed from $500 to UNLIMITED since is topped using it.

Now I don't want to fly. I know at some point i will have to. Luckily, i am in a position to arrange for a secured credit card with a balance of whatever I want. At least their aren't any fees & its my own cash I'll be "borrowing". There are several ways used to FORCE us to have a card. Right now I use cash & checks for everything.

My aunt bought her son an Xbox360 and even 2 years later, if it Red rings on them, costco will take it back and give them a new one.

I have reviewed them all and have used most. For me, being credit card free outweighs all of them by a mile. I am also preparing to pay off my mortgage in a lump sum. Since i have always payed cash for my vehicles this will leave me debt free except for the "grid". I agree that there can be certain perks with some cards.

This guy has some good points, but he just wants you to use his service. The key to getting out of debt is 1) stop using the cards immediately 2) call the bank and get your APR lowered 3) make some sacrifices and pay as much towards the principle as you can each month until its paid off. 4) NEVER use a credit card again!
