Re: SS arrived
So glad to hear that you have received your back pay and are using it wisely. We only use one and sometimes, two credit cards but always pay the balance at the end of each month; saves on paying a lot of interest. But in earlier years, when we had more little bills (like credit card payments) we would pay the minimum on all of them; and some extra on the "smallest bill" and get it paid off earlier. Then we would take the same amount of money we were paying on that bill (plus the extra amount) and put it on the next smallest credit card or bill. This worked for us but you have to really be committed each month. Before you know it, you will have them all paid off and you will be in control of your money instead of the money (credit cards) in control of you. Good luck.

P My landlady Mrs. Sun charges a $50.00 late fee to tenants that pay their rent late. She has me make a bank deposit so she has the money while away at work. I’m not late on rent. Your credit card situation demonstrates the evolution of the modern financial age Jeff. BC-A, Bill’s R®st
