Hi Bobby,
Considering that going off your sig, there are only one or two cards left for you to get,you will be in the garden soon....like it or not. Lol
Yes you are right......Then it will be time to work on higher limits I suppose....otherwise I am going to get bored and start actually charging things on these cards...LOL
It is just great to be back on top of the credit game.
In 2008 after a nasty divorce I lost everything....had a forclosure on a brand new home that I had built. Lost all credit.
2 years ago I started my rebuilding journey with nothing except a FP card and a $250 limit.
I refuse to get back into debt and lose it all again.
I hope that I can give some input on these forums to help those that are where I was a few years ago.
Congrats on the approval. Now off to the garden!
You have a nice set of cards, let them age.

Ok so I was suppose to be in the GARDEN as of 2/20/13 but I gave into my temptations with NFCU.
Garden, I don't have a garden, lol! I have a field!!!!!
I have over 40 inquiries on Experian!
Over 17 cards
I am an addict and proud of it. One year ago I would have never thought that I would be approved a credit card. I started with secured credit cards and I recently received my first card with a $2500 credit limit (yes, it is a GECRB card-Paypal MC).
All my other cards are toy limits. except for Wal-Mart Store card at $1,200 CL.
Also, we got our first auto lease My husbands first brand new 2013 Toyota Tundra CrewMax.
Last month we also got my car refinance at 5.75% from 18%!!!
I look at it this way, if I had never become an addict I would still be paying high interest rates on all my loans. I would also not be able to purchase a home. I made it from 499 to 644 in less than 12 months (even with all my mistakes of applying for everthing that had an application, lol).
Thank you myFICO! I was able to have the following removed: foreclosure, repo, three charge offs, 10 collections, and am 12 months of no lates. My baddies are student loan lates 12 x 120+ lates from two student loans and 1x30 day, 1x60 day 1x90 day. I keep telling myself that in two years I will be golden (only if I stop applying). Maybe I am still in denial just a little bit....
im here and believe me when i say i need to be i neeeed to be 4 new acounts in 2 months excuse me thats 5 new apps in 2 months atleast i was approved but gosh my aaoa is gone to iiiisssshhh util is up but gosh

I had already had the Cash Rewards card but I wanted the Flagship so bad I could already feel it in my wallet.
So, today I committed the garden "SIN" and applied.....
Result: Approved!!!!!
Ok I feel much better getting that off of my chest, now I can hardly contain myself waiting for the arrival of my new card.
This time I really am going to the garden....
GOAL: 1 year!!!!
Completely off topic but what the Cowboys card you have there? I want one.
