Yes, the Steelers are struggling right now, but I believe they will turn it around in time for the NFL Championship Game in February!
Cool! Well best of luck to you in '21 on this card! I have full confidence you will be successful in your goals with this card, and in other goals. Using this site and the helpful info from the people on here has been gold for me. I'd like to think that I eventually helped others as well along the way once I learned a lot and was on here very heavy for a period of time.
And, I hope you are right on them Steelers
@RonM21 , Thanks for the vote of confidence!!
I agree with you about the FORUMS. Before I started my Credit Rebuild in April 2018, I had given up on credit cards (aftermath of the 2009 Great Recession) and decided to use Debit cards or cash for purchases. Then, in January 2016 I decided to apply for the No Credit Check Secured OpenSky CC to protect my Debit card from online purchases. That card is the foundation for my April 2018 Rebuild project. As you can see in my Signature, I have learned a lot since then. It's been quite a journey, but I wouldn't have been successful without the information shared by myFICOers each and EVERY DAY!!
THANK YOU myFICO family!!!

But then again, the whole journey has been unbelievable really. I'm sure many can relate.
I can relate to that! Around a a year and a half ago I was looking on Capital One's Creditwise site and I saw a column that said "Available Credit" and my rating was listed as "Average". At the time my total CL was $8000. After looking closer at it, I saw that you needed $50K of total credit to be considered "Excellent". I remember thinking "Why in the world would I ever want that much credit, and how would I get it, if I did??" I started aggressively seeking CLIs on my cards I had at the time, then I found this place. Now my total CLs are over $140K and DW (who had never had any cards before) has nearly $35K in total CL.
Like you, I'm blown away at the journey!

It has been a good run for sure lol. One I didn't expect with this card early on, especially when this card needed HP's to get increases until a year ago or so. I'm amazed!
