Re: credit cards: worth the bonus offers?
to each their own (although you will see opinions posted in your thread that do not necessarily espouse that)
for me personally, no, it's not worth it. I am way too concerned about my susceptibility to overspending while using the card anyway compounded by the justification that "well, I AM getting a reward!"
also, quite frankly, I just don't spend enough each year to make good use of the rewards.
I have considered it, even started a thread once for advice on which might be the best but in the end, it just wasn't worth the headache vs. the small amount I would get back anyway.
that said, maybe if I made more and spent more, it would be worth looking into but for now, I like my life simple and no debt with one regular old card fits that bill nicely.
