    Since it sounds like you’ll be spending a good amount of money on your credit card, why not go with a card that offers a nice rebate or some sort of points? My card of choice is Citibank’s AAdvantage Mastercard card which gives me frequent flyer points on American Airlines. Since I charge a lot for business purposes, I’ve taken several free airline trips over the years as a result.

    Thanks for the feedback, much appreciated. I will look into the AAdvantage Mastercard. Most of my expenses are business related.

    sdrealtor: I’m in Ventura County. The low end got hammered over the last year (700K is now 450K ish), the higher end is now showing the bigger declines on a month-to-month basis. I can buy now for what it costs me to rent, but I am looking for a bottom. Very few houses come up for sale by choice, almost all are distressed. I’m considering starting to look for a good realtor, maybe purchase in Fall. My rental house is in a perfect area (near my son’s school) and I have great landlords, nice house). So no pressure on that front.

    My business has slowed, not to the point where I need to lay anyone off, but I am ultra conservative (to a fault). I keep seeing / hearing of lost jobs here, so I am feeling that this economic “bounce” we are seeing (in the market) is based on hot air.

    DataAgent, the CitiBank site shows an annual fee after the first year. Have you been paying an annual fee?

    Yes, I pay the fee. $85 a year I think. It’s the only card I pay for. The benefits I get far outweigh the annual fee.
