I noted that you did not give ONE valid benefit from paying THEM $450 a year
for the "privilege" of using their credit card. The ONLY reason, so far,
that is evident is the SNOB APPEAL. Your use of the word "sucker" in your
post, so far anyway, appears to accurately describe those who would pay
ANYTHING for a credit card.
