I don't understand the mindset behind of *I want to increase my income so I can put thousands on my cards* by this, do you mean, you'll have more money available to afford things you don't have right now? try no to feel pleasure on spending just to go after rewards and limit increases, don't allow the cards to put pressure on buying neither. See joy in paying yourself by saving; that's your best and only "financial friend".


Exactly!

Oh no, maybe I just worded my sentence wrong or it was read wrong. I started this credit journey in 2019 on a very limited income and so my spends reflect that. However, come 2022 with a new job, a substantial increase in income and looking to get a new apartment, i will be doing more spending, all organically of course. I keep my UTI at 1% for the last year and a half. I practice AZEO as I have 3 cards only and PIF. I have learnt from the best: you guys here on this forum. Thank you.
