If you have an AOPA/MBNA credit card then you should check the APR on your

you pay on time.


Anybody who carries a balance on any credit card is an idiot or a sucker.
The credit card companies hate me because I haven't paid a cent of
interest to any of them in 3 years. I get about 5 envelopes full of Visa
checks every month (as well as come-ons for new cards) because they want
to sucker me into that debt cycle.


Paul is what the credit card industry calls a "deadbeat"....
When the banks started the cc: industry in the 60's; they used
to cancel such people. Federal regulations somewhat constrain
them now.

There was a Frontline on the cc industry just last week. See
if your PBS station is rerunning it.
