That's sweet, Steph.
Ugh. I just bolted my lunch so fast, I have an extra 20 minutes now! And I'm slightly ill. That was ridiculous. This is why people shouldn't rush me! It never works out well.
Angel's lame. His hair goes straight up, and he's bloody stupid!

Do you get the 0% offers for balance transfers? They are limited time, but you can string them out. All of my (quickly decreasing) credit card debt is interest free.
My wife has fully bought into my budgeting and debt reduction obsession, which is very cool. If she can help keep us on budget we should be retiring about $1000 of debt a month.

She said that as the new bankruptcy bill was being passed, credit card companies were increasing mailing to moderate income people.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I do, but since I'm looking at possibly buying a house in the next 9-12 months, I don't want to screw with my credit score by opening too many credit cards.

The number of offers I get from Capital One alone is enough to overflow a landfill.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Posting from my Palm at work. No work yet. But I have ID.
Let me not speak of family. Just...no.
I read Joan Jett was gay and doing Carmen Electra. That's all the gay I got.

Steph - you get a new 0% card, transfer balance upon getting it (I just got one where the 0 rate was only for transfers and I did the app and transfer all on the phone - 10 minutes tops), then cancel the high rate card. No increase to debt load.
Also, when buying, if you are worried about the amount of total debt you have available, I had several of my cards lower my limit before I did the mortgage pre-approval.

Chatty!co-worker shared that bit of info with me not 15 minutes ago.
