Default Re: Closing Credit Cards?

hey there, don't cancel those cards. consolidate all the balances onto one card, and *stop* using those with $0 balances. either shred them or keep them in a safe place. cancelling credit cards may actually lower your credit score (either through decreasing available credit or shortening credit history).
