No credit card required
Browse credit cards from a variety of issuers to see if there's a better card for you.
I have 17+ with almost $200k in credit lines.
BUT they are fairly easy to manage as I keep around 12-15 with zero balance and pif most others.
remember: a card with a Zero Balance is not a bill you have to pay.

So most of your limits are around 50cents? Or did you miss a K!
This question gets asked every week BTW
HA HA OOPs I meant $10.4 K
I'm a complete newcomer to credit of any kind. I opened my first card in Jan 2012 (secured, now closed).
I have 8 open cards (some are intentional duplicates), all new since Jan 2013.
$58,400 total limits.
7 cards and $65.3k total limits
7 personal cards, 1 business card. $72,500 in personal tradelines and my Ink Bold employee card has a limit of $13,000.

Two!
Right now I have 22. Total CC Limit is $257,705. 11 opened in the last 12 months. Oldest opened 11/1/99. Newest opened 3/31/14.
I also have a GE Money Improvement Solutions and a GE Money Online Financing account that both show up as an active revolving charge accounts on my CR with $15K and $4.5K limit respectively. But since it's been paid off, I haven't figured out how to use these accounts again. Total including these two accounts would be $277,205.
My short term goal for this year is to open 2 more Amex, 1 charge and 1 revolver. Long term goal is to focus on obtaining larger limits on a few key cards and start closing some of the smaller limit cards.
About 3 too many.
CareCredit, Apple Visa, and Diamond Preferred are all on the chopping block.
6 cards, but 7 TLs (Macy's: 2 CLs, Macy's store and Macy's AmEx)
