Citi (used to be ATT Universal) sent me a letter last week saying I hadn't used my CC in a long time and threatened to cancel it by Oct 27th. It was a $65K card I had forgotten about but still carried in my wallet. So I called em up, to save them the trouble and told them to cancel immediately. Excess credit who needs it.

Dow Jones News is saying that the weakness in the banks is short selling. Sure, why not? Now, having said that, IF and that's a big IF, it is short selling, those guys are gonna get squeezed probably by end of day. I'm playing it that way since I already stuck my neck out and predicted it. Come on financials!

I have zero interest on Chase card purchases till next year. No shortage of calls from Chase or Citi to get new cards. We have about 70% equity so we still get plenty of calls for refi.
