Collection Calls
This is most scary part of Credit Card Game. Credit Card Companies will constantly call you and demand their money back. Collectors may call you 5 – 7 times a day.

In the news recently in my area, the topic of credit cards have been coming up quite frenquently. People are getting their houses foreclosed on and getting denied loans all in the name of credit cards. Some claim that they were just plain stupid and overused them while others said they needed them just in order to survive since they lost their jobs and can not find another one.

So i got in the mail today a letter from my credit card company telling me that they were lowering my credit limit. I don't use this card much, don't carry a balance on it and definitely don't need a $14,000 limit but am just wondering does it affect my credit score or anything?

(Reuters) - The U.S. credit-card industry may pull back well over $2 trillion of lines over the next 18 months due to risk aversion and regulatory changes, leading to sharp declines in consumer spending, prominent banking analyst Meredith Whitney said.
The credit card is the second key source of consumer liquidity, the first being jobs, the Oppenheimer & Co analyst noted.

I got a surprising email yesterday which sent me into quite the fury. When I was younger and dumber I fell into the Capital One credit card trap. They will give anyone a card and then rack up charges and raise your interest rate until the card is maxed out.

Kim Kardashian has never really done anything that’s made me say, “Wow, that girl’s good with money.” She’s done a lot of things that have made me say, “Wow, that girl’s got an ass that should be on her chest,” but that’s about it. And apparently Kim’s ass cleavage is the biggest thing she’s got going for her, because not only is the girl bad with money, but she’s criminally bad. And when you combine bad fiduciary judgment with a ridiculous love of shopping and access to someone else’s credit card, things can get out of hand.

When I had to choose which card I wanted for my first credit card 3 years ago, each bank was telling me all the different rewards I could get. Frequent flier miles, discounts on merchandise, etc. I went with plain and simple- cash back.
