Credit Cards

I've gotten a few questions sent to me regarding my credit card that I mention in the book. It was issued by Fleet Bank, which got bought out by Bank of America 2 years ago. I still use this credit card, however, they keep sending me replacement cards with new numbers on it. I can't seem to find where new customers can sign-up for this card.

I do know credit card deals go in and out of favor all the time depending on things like interest rates, the strength of the economy, and even oil prices. (When gas prices are expensive, gas mile credit card perks are obviously more attractive to customers.) So keep on the look out for it. If I find it, I'll post it here too.

Also of note, GetRichSlowly has a great article and discussion about credit cards today, check it out.

UPDATE: I've been informed by mail my bond credit card has been discontinued and has been rolled into a "Credit Rewards" card by Bank of America and now instead of getting bonds, I get a small portion of money back. I'll have to now read the fine print to see if it's worth keeping.
