Most Effective Response for "Why do you want a CLI"?

[burberryboy007]

Or like those people who research commentary and strategies for more effective salary negotiations in an effort to maximize their lifetime income potential and set up a secure future for their families. What a bunch of idiots...

I guffawed. Sadly, I think there is a lot of truth there.

The one time I asked for a CLI I told them balance transfer (which was the truth). It worked, they doubled my credit line. I ended up not doing the balance transfer. I was going to help friend, but thank God I did not.
