@Very impressive @jamesA. What’s your total revolving credit to date?

Thank you, CI.

 

I began this journey at the end of May 2018 with 20,250 in CL. My initial goal was 100K for year-end 2018. I've exceeded that as I'm presently at 176,300 (plus 800 Office Depot biz card -- lol Citi -- I guess they don't like my business prospects!)

Thanks!  To put it in context, I carried balances and paid interest for 40 years.  Ten years ago, I had 95% utilization and was paying over $10,000 of interest each year.  I don't ever want to go back to that ugly place.
