Military Star Card - $4100 (12 years old)
Cap One Journey - $300 SL (11 years old)
Cap One Platinum - $2000 SL (8 years old)
Credit One - $500 SL (2 years old)
AMEX - $500 SL (1 yr 2 mo old)
Ashley Advantage - $1000 SL ( 1 yr 2 mo old)
Kohls Card - $1500 SL ( 1 year 5 mo old)
You can close Cap1 Journey and the Credit one as they both will continue to report for 10 years as a positive closed account.
Amex no increase? I would pickup a new amex while your at it!
Technically the Kohls 1500 SL was a CLI from 700... I just kept it in the grouping of old cards. I have not requested a CLI on the AMEX, I did a few months back and was declined... So I have steered clear of that for now.
I also did check for a rewards upgrade on the Cap1 Journey, I am able to upgrade it to the Quicksilver 1.5% cashback.

See if you're eligible for an upgrade on the Capital One.

Was able to upgrade both Cap1's to the Cap1 QS... Thanks for the tip!

I didn't want to push my luck, and quite honestly I think I am at a good point right now. Extending my available credit from $9k to what $55k. Really i was just looking to pad my credit file with a diverse set of creditors. I will wait until next year to try for a CLI on Amex as long as its a Soft Pull... I am done for a good while (goal is a year) before my next hard pull.
