Looking at your signature line, 17 cards?!  How do you manage that many?  Also, over what period of time did you acquire all these cards - a few every year, a bunch at one time, how?! Ha.

Guessing this is directed at me?

Been on here since March '12, so it's been over two years. Manage with google calendar (I know statement cuts, and due dates), along with checkme, mint, and CS.

The non rewards are for AAOA, and padding...pretty much useless unless they're used for an emergency, but I keep them around for the limits/weight they provide.

Yes sir, directed towards you.  Great idea in regards to google calendar as I utilize that for about everything else.  I am greenhorn, so can you explain what "along with checkme, mint, and CS" mean?  Thanks!

Sorry, one more question.  Do you maintain activity on all 17 cards?  I am currently developing a plan for usage, so each card receives a little love.  All my cards have NO annual fee, but I was under the impression if they receive no activity - the issuer would potentially close.  

I wish I could pay my child support with a credit card!  Currently I just write a check and stick it in the mail, but I long to receive *something* for the 1.5k I send out each month!

Yep. They all get used.

I keep getting those catalog preapprovals for Ginny's, Jordan's, 5th Ave, etc. I also keep getting loan preapprovals and a pre approval for a $400 credit linefrom First Premier... which I'm not taking. Lol. I was also receiving preapprovals from Cap1 for Platinum MC and QS1 which I already have?? So, nothing good.

I keep getting these CC offers including one from a vendor that I already have a card with.  They "promise" me a pre-approved amount that is less than half my current limit....

5/3 sends me stuff ALL the time.  Of all of the cards that I've opened, I'm strongly considering closing that one.  Totally useless for me now.

Got my 1st world card with them, which is pretty much useless in my own eyes now. The cashback card....based on points....whoopie!!!
