zero. Im only 20 but have managed to rack up many thousands of dollars in debt. If I did get a credit card, I would probably just max it out and add the bill in with the rest.

One, and for $1000.00 only. At one time, I had one credit card with a $17,500 limit and 7.9 APR. I got into a little trouble with it and vowed never to carry anything higher than $1000.00 for emergency use only. If I don't have the cash, then I won't buy it.

Many years ago I had all the gas cards and department store cards, so at one time, I had 16 cards!
Now I have one corporate card and one personal card. |

Let’s see….. We have separate cards for the following uses, Home Expenses/repairs, Gas for autos, auto repairs/parts, online purchases, Travel/entertainment, anything else not already listed. That’s 6 different accounts with 2 cards on each (Wife and I). We only use cash if they do not take cc’s. Total combined credit limit, $102,000.00. Average monthly balance, $0.00. Cash back from Discover just about pays for a 2 week vaca. every year.
Having separate acc’s for each use makes keeping track of where money goes, and tax time much easier. |

Three ...
One for all my business expenses, makes keeping records much simpler. Gets paid in full every month, and earns miles One for gas and incidental expenses. Gets paid off every month, earns cash back bonuses.* And one that I keep for emergencies only. It's got a high enough limit to cover anything that might come up. *Also know as the "Ammo Fund". |

I used to have 2. Just cancelled one today 'cause I never used it. The only remaining one has a credit limit of $4,500 that I intend NEVER to max out unless it's an absolute emergency. The only reason I have a CC is because it's a convenient form of payment. I refuse to use one if I don't already have the necessary $$ in my bank account to cover it.

I have one with a $500 limit. It is used for internet buys and for when a CC is needed to reserve something (hotel room, rental car etc.). I think right now it had $3.96 for some stuff my son got on amazon.com that was over the amount of the gift card he got for his birthday.

I had quite a few--major ones then some for department stores...
I now have a business card to use for government travel American Express (use for reward program on occasion) MasterCard (interest-free financing for a year; putting a new bike and some furniture on it) Discover (don't use anymore) Visa CheckCard (use a lot) I'm living by the philosophy that, unless it's a major purchase that might dent my checking account, I will pay in cash. Besides that MasterCard that I have furniture on, I pay my cards off every month. |

2 Visa
2 MC Balance zero on all, PIF monthly. Used mainly for business stuff that gets reimbursed (flights, hotel, meals, etc.). When used for personal stuff, like GUNS & AMMO, I only buy what I can justify with the paycheck. Considering I'm a highly paid shill for the Bush Whitehouse, that amounts to an aweful lot of guns and ammo!! |

Several, but some of them are just for business expenses.
There are 4 in my wallet; VISA, Discover (for Sam's) and 2 business supply cards. My wife has a bunch of store cards because they usually have discounts for purchases at that store. |

One, Conoco, but we aren't using it much since gas is cheaper at the local grocery.
Debit Cards are less likely to get us into trouble. (Five years after we were married, we were $20,000 in debt to those credit cards. We got a bank loan and paid them all off.) |

One for personal and one for biz travel and biz related purchases.
Keeps the accounts seperated so I dont have to keep receipts while traveling for the company. I just turn in the complete statement to accounting. |

3. 1 business card, 1 personal card I use for cashback rewards, and 1 'emergency' card with a high limit I don't use.
What kind of credit score do you guys that don't have cards have? |
