Looks like some nice cards to match your life style, no I do not think you have too many cards, I probably have the same amount but much lower limits

Thanks I am 33 and I I strated with very low limits when i was young. For example When I was 18 I opened a bloomingdales store credit card and recieved a 100 limit and about 13 years later never late , my card is upgraded to amex along with a 10,000 limit. i havent requested since 2 falls ago. I think its time again.

I have 7.  I'm going to close two (BoA + Chase), and combine two PFCU cards to wittle down to 4.  And keep those 4 for life.  (2 Penfed, 1 NFCU, 1 USAA)

 

I'm about done with the game....
