Capital One Gold Card

Here's where the credit card debt gets scary, it's in the thousands. See Target, Capital One Visa and Orchard, all gives me a sense of, it's not that bad, it's under a grand. Then I see this card, and want to puke.

They also recently raised my credit limit. Double!

From $2500 to $5000, not sure what I did to warrant that uptick, but I got it.

As of this posting the owed amount is: $3,027

I will update this post as I pay down on this debt. A caveat, I forewarned this card will be going up in the shorterm.

12/15 - I have 5 more short term charges for this card. 2 more vet visits, oil change & wash, tires, tune up. I should have these short term charges completed w/in a month. From January 15th on out, the only transaction on this card will be, pay offs!

I currently owe $2,863

1/31/07 Update: This card is has been paid in full!
