A long, long time ago when I first joined this forum there was a big focus on "controlling score and getting out of debt". The focus seems to have shifted to "how can I get a double digit number of credit cards with crap scores, resulting in serious rather than fatal damage to my score?"

I only app if I need credit and I will benefit from it. As you know, I apped for joint on my DWs Chase card to improve my scores, unfortunately that didn't happen. I think it's a bad idea to go overboard with apps, most of us should only need a few CCs to build a credit history or in the case of bad credit, dilute the negatives.
