Today I was a little embarrassed.

My coworker and I went to lunch and split the check and I pulled out my Quicksilver and he pulled out his CSP.  I can't wait until I can qualify for a prime card....

Re: Today I was a little embarrassed.

As long as it wasnt declined, I wouldnt be embarassed, LOL.

 

It was just that card's turn in the spotlight, you could have a Black Visa in there, thats how I see it.

 

I am very happy to have more than 1 card in there that isnt a debit card.  I am not that far from my early rebuilding days.

Don't be! It's just a plastic card, as long as it goes through your QS is as good as that CSP Smiley Very Happy

What is there to be embarrassed about?  Don't let a credit score or card determine your worth.

Re: Today I was a little embarrassed.

How many people with the CSP got into gambling debt or nasty divorce and now can't have any credit cards? Don't take this as I'm wishing misfortune on others but no one's perfect and after rebuilding you can have a CSP again.

LOL speaking of the devil, I've maxed out my CSP for almost a year now and I can't pay it down. It's in my wallet but I really have no use for it lol in the meanwhile my QS is bailing me out.

Re: Today I was a little embarrassed.

You really have a wrong view of credit and credit cards if you are embarrassed by the card you pull out of your wallet.  By being on this board, you are showing that you at least card about your credit.  Believe me, there are many a CSP holders who are glad no one can see their credit profile.  So hold your head up and go as normal.  You'll see soon enough what a card really means to you in the overall scheme of things.  just a means of paying.
