Being Credit Card Smart
Ron Lieber, managing editor of the new FiLife personal finance site, writes for the Wall St. Journal about how to be credit card smart - starting with "lining your credit cards up on a table. Turn them over, call the phone numbers listed and ask what interest rate you're currently paying." He goes on to suggest how to negotiate a better rate - what one of my partners calls the "just ask for it" discount. Lieber's favorite credit card? His Starwood Preferred Guest American Express card.
