How much available credit after 2 years of credit building?

I was curious as to what others available credit is/was

 after 2 years of building credit?

 

My goal is to get to 60k in available credit by end of 2013 ?


Its now about a year since i started and i am at 14K credit available

 

I always make sure to PIF and keep my utilz under 5%.

 

I just added two AU's with over 6yr history so that should help me

on my next apps.

That's difficult to gauge since lots of people have npsl cards. As long as you have enough to meet your needs you're all good pretty much.
