I am sure a lot depends on your credit profile and finances.
I retired 13 years ago and have not had any cards canceled or CL decreases.
Have also not had any problems getting new cards.
@Kforce you got new card like 12 years ago
I know it seems like that but in truth, when working I only had 3 cards.
It was retirement and this forum that ruined me.
It started with two SalieMae's then the Bank of the West, USBank Cash+, FNBO travel elite, and last year that 3% USAlliance, and a second 3% - January this year.
I have been closings some. ( 3 this year ).
Now only 6 cards, with 2 marked for closure next year.

Right, time for some peer pressure: "It's not nice to keep valuable secrets from your pals in MyFico who have given you so much information over the years. Is it really just Take Take Take?"
That's why I never mention my secret flat rate 5% rewards 0% APR for ever card (a.k.a the never pay card)
