I'm curious....what is your goal credit card limit all together? All you can get, to match your salary or what?

When I started building my credit last year, my first goal was to just get approved (lol), then once I started getting cards I wanted to break the 5,000.00 credit limit on a card. I did that today with a new Amex BCE approval. I don't see really needing much more than 5k on any of my cards. So I'm curious what goals y'all set. Do you jusy always want more as you get more/better cards??

Went over $100K this month, so I'm very satisfied with where I am.  I have the cards that I wanted and the limits are fine where they are.  If I get auto-CLI, cool...if not, I'm just fine with staying where I am!  Time to GARDEN big time ! ! ! !

In The Garden 02/01/13
TU(TU04)=813 EQ(BEACON 9.0)=803 EX=756(4/2013) CL=$123,650 TOTAL/UTIL= ~5%

$10,000 per card, $50,000 total CL. I was hoping to get over the $10k hump on my 61 day 3x CLI from $5400 starting CL to $15k. But they only gave me $8500. Disapointed to say the least but I only put about $700 through the card in 3 months so its expected.

I like having my limits high enough to be able to book airfare and hotel for family vacations without having to worry about multiple payments.

I just want to get my first 5 digit limt...without a hard pull and recover from all my new accounts and inquiries over the last year. I am hoping in six months I will have all my scores at 760+ if I don't app.

My goal later this year is to obtain Discover with a high starting limit and low APR and maybe CSP. Perhaps a Citi card...but only because they have denied me twice and I think I just want the satisfaction of getting them to say yes..lol

100% Ficos: EX 751, TU 731, Walmart TU fico 740, EQ 741
Inquiries last 2 years/1 year/6 months: EX-7/3/0, TU- 11/6/0, EQ-3/1/0~ app free since 11/23/12
Kohls $600~Amex BCE $2000~ Walmart Discover $6000~NFCU Signature CashRewards $9000~ Chase Freedom MC $6000~ Chase Amazon Visa $1900~ Cap 1/HSBC MC $450~ Amazon Store $7000~ Fingerhut $1350

Eh, I would love at least one card with at least $5K at this point...something I can travel with without issues. For daily use, though, cards in the $1K - $2K range would be perfect.

Of course, the more the better. I'd just lock up most of them.

10k per card is what I am aiming for non Amex.

25k is Amex!

I want to break the $20K limit  I am currently at $16K! Hopefully this year 

Edit to add break the $100K barrier! Almost there 

$100K in Credit

That´s a good one.

In additon: Enough to not worry about UTIL if a balance reports. Still PIF of course, but not before statement cuts. Aiming to pay on due date.

Amex Platinum (NPSL) | Amex BCE (12,000) | Discover IT (8,000) | Chase Freedom (4,300) | Walmart (850) | Alliant CU Visa | CapOne Newcomers MC | Gone for good: CapOne secured (thx for getting me started) | Amex Zync (thx for getting me into AX)

FICO: TU 726 (5/13) EQ 710 (5/22) EX 714 (1/26)

I would like to break $100k in revolving lines this year
