app spree and time to garden

Anonymous — Mon, 19 Aug 2013 20:41:57 GMT

first of all, thank you to contributors in this forum!! very helpful

mentioned part of the story in another post. really happy with what i have achieved!! annual income is around 25k, latest fico score (TU) is 740

started with no history exactly two years ago (aug 2011) and got a BofA secured credit card, CL = 200

nothing happened in 2012 except the secured cc turned into non-secured

this year I started my spree, espcially during the summer when I found this forum!

Mar 2013, requested CLI on my BofA card, 300 -> 1k

Apr 2013, applied for Capital one platinum (39 AF), 2k, i should probably have applied for a better one...

Jul 2013, applied for chase UA, cl = 8k

Jul 2013, applied for boa 123 cash rewards, cl = 1k

Aug 2013, applied for discover it, cl = 1k

Aug 2013, applied for amex spg, cl = 2k

Aug 2013, applied for citi forward, cl = 4k

Aug 2013, closed boa secured card (there's AF)

all applications are successful. total cl is now close to my income... time to stay at the garden and aim for (1) csp / citi typ (2) capital one PC (current one has AF)

Annual income $2.5K or $25K?
