  1. https://www.foxbusiness.com/economy/credit-counseling-service-huge-surge-calls-during-holiday-shopping-kickoff Useless article that doesn't really address the issue. Stop feeling guilty about whether or not to buy gifts for others is a good place to start. Just that it's on sale doesn't mean you need it. Want and need are two different things.

  3. Since Apple is looking at 12 to 15 months out to pull the plug, I have to wonder when the existing card will be closed to new applications. With delinquencies on the up tick in general, I don't see any issuer wanting to take on a higher than normal steaming pile of bad loans. I'm not sure Sync is even this *Admin prohibits insults that reference an individual's intelligence.*. Bottom line is whoever ends up offering the card, I'm sure the underwriting won't be as liberal.
  4. Around 2008 I burned Comenity on several store cards. Back then they were calling it World Financial Network National Bank (WFNNB). I did not file for BK. I simply walked away. Never got sued. From 2015 to 2016 I got approved by way of the shopping cart trick that Comenity is famous for. The cards I got were Williams Sonoma Visa Signature, BJ's Wholesale MC, and Caesars Total Rewards Visa Signature. Also had Wayfair and Overstock. I closed Caesars. Had a $12k CL Grew Williams Sonoma and BJ's to over $25k each, before they got sold off to Cap1. I still have the cards and the high CL. Wayfair and Overstock were both over $10k each. They were useless drunk apps. Closed after one year. YMMV as far as being on a BL. Either way you will be taking a HP.

  6. About 5 minutes ago I got my weekly email from Apple wanting me to apply.
  7. Charlie Munger, friend and business partner of Warren Buffett, dead at 99
  8. I bought something on Monday I needed for work. Not because it was cyber Monday, but because what I wanted was finally back in stock.
  9. Now Chase, BofA, and Citi are bombing me with vehicle financing offers.
  10. I spent considerable time about a year or so ago looking into this card. After reading about it on some points and miles groups, and some YouTube videos, I just didn’t feel the juice was worth the squeeze.
  11. I got the instacart offer too. I’m not sure why they are gangbanging me with lending offers. Nothing on my credit reports say I need help. I have around $400k in total available credit, and less than 1% usage is reporting at any given time. Real FICO’s with the CRA’s are 790 to 820. Maybe they want to loan to me because there is a high probability I would pay them back. I don’t know.
  12. My email was carpet bombed today with pay over time and BT schemes from Amex, Citi, and Chase. Black Friday must be coming up soon.
