		<description>Dear Mr. Credit Card,

Hello.  How are you?
I am Mrs. Reward Cards Freak.
I ran into your website just by chance when I was browsing for several credit card sites.

I am one of people you mention in your website who pay off their balances in full and consider credit card as merely one of the payment methods.  I was very happy to run into your web site and very thankful to someone who has done so much research on all credit cards available when I was trying to find out which card can give me the best rewards to maximize the benefit of having credit cards.  I totally agree with you that the credit card is a powerful financial tool for people like me.  Thank you very much for sharing information on your website.

I have been receiving invitation to all kinds of credit cards application and for the last 2 years, I started paying attention to those instead of throwing them into trash.  My principle has been to use only one credit card (to simplify my life) until I achieve the maximum reward and then switch to other card.  
But, lately, I also started using multiple cards simultaneously per different purposes.  After reading your website, I am convinced that using multiple cards for different purpose will maximize the financial return.

Until recently, I was using Chase Cash card for day-to-day spend.  Chase Cash Card gave me (with promotion) $100 for the first spend and 3% cash back for the three major categories of my spend.  It also gave me $50 when the reward reaches $200 and gave me $100 when the total spend reached $5000.  (only for the first $5000 not thereafter.)  I have already reached this goal so it is time to switch to other card and then I ran into your website.  
 
After reading your web site, I decided to apply for two cards.  One is Citi PremierPass -Elite Level with $75 membership and the other is Citi diamond preferred reward M/C.  I already got both.  For the first one,  you spend $600 in 3 months and get 20,000 points.  Within a week, this was achieved as I had anticipated spend and got 20,000 points.  My family and I am frequent fliers and this card will really benefit me.  Citi diamon preferred reward M/C was a replacement to my day-to-day spend Chase Cash Back card and as a promotion, I get 10,000 points for $100 spend in 3 months and get 5 points for gas/grocries/pharmacy for the first 12 months.  I have Citi bank accounts and a member of ThankYou network so I qualify for the fixed points and these two cards will help me to build ThankYou points for the reward.  I plan to use Citi diamond preferred reward M/C only for one year because 5 points deal will expire after one year.  After that I will have to find the next option for day-to-day cash back opportunity.  (PS) Before CHASE cash card, I had a green-colored Citi Cash Dividend cards and got 5% cash back for all spends for 6 months.  I used this card to pay for my daughter&#039;s college tuition and got 5% cash back in check.  

I continue to get in-sight about credit card and other financial advise from your web site and will help educating my friends who don&#039;t know much about this great tool.

Thank you and best regards,
