Sometimes its hard to stop, until something REALLY bad happens to you for applying for so many cards. Once again, I've learned my lesson the 2nd time around and now I'm focusing on fixing everything!

Don't click that button, I am doing well, I know waiting to summer or even next fall will give me a better chance to get better cards, so hanging in there......

Yup, I got too greedy. And rejection has it's way of stopping you in your tracks. I already have some really great cards. Don't need anymore. So more applying, for real this time!!!

Re: I need willpower! Or the App Addicts thread.

A LOT! 15 in total I believe, but I don't use them all. Citi Plat Select (new) and MTVU, Discover More (new), Barclay Financing Visa (new for MacBook Air purchase), BofA MC, Nordstrom Sig Visa, Amex Blue, CapOne Platinum MC, Pinnacle Credit Union Visa, and 6 store cards - Macys, Bloomies, Banana, Vicky Secs, Express and WalMart. Highest limit is 10k lowest is $250 (Thanks, WalMart, lol). About 40k in total.

But seriously, point taken. This rejection must be an omen that I really don't need anymore cards.
