Re: Being Judged for your CC at high end stores

I go into Nordstroms and hand the Female

associate my Credit One card and let her know "There's

plenty more where that came from" Then wink to

totally creep her out.

...which is why I usually make sure to make my metal cards "ping" multiple times before handing it to them so they know how impressive it is. If they still don't care after that, I usually tell them my credit limit.

That's smart. I'm gonna try it

They seem to judge when you try walking away without paying

That's an observation, not firsthand experience.

Warren Buffet uses the American Express Green Card and drives an old station wagon, last I recall.

People who show off are trying to look rich. People who are rich don’t care.

if you're really insecure about the type of card you hand the sales person, customize your cards to a metal one.

 

this way even a low balance secured cc will look like a baller metal cc haha
