Is there such a thing? :) I’m not sure to be honest with you, BUT today we’re going to pretend and say YES!  There IS a perfect credit card out there, we just haven’t told the world what it is yet!  So let’s do something about that shall we?

Here is your form to fill out - which I stole from Dinks Finance because it is awesome and clever and all sorts of exciting for financial nerds like ourselves:

I wish my credit card had _________ I hate that my credit card has _________ I wish I could pay for ­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­__________ with my credit card I always use my credit card to purchase _________ because __________

I’m going first because it’s my game:

• I wish my credit card had a shut off valve. Like, whenever it smells alcohol on my breath it only allows me to spend $20 max!
• I hate that my credit card has expiration dates. It is soooo annoying to go back and update everything every other year.  Why can’t they just last forever? (security, i know i know… blah blah)
• I wish I could pay for my mortgage with my credit card! That would be over TWO THOUSAND DOLLARS a month almost doubling the reward points I’d get!!!  Man that would be awesome.
• I always use my credit card to purchase everything i possibly can because i use my credit card as a budget! Bitch! Haha… can you tell I’m feeling feisty today? But seriously, I would honestly be one happy man if I could use just 1 piece of plastic to pay for every single thing in my life.  It’s total convenience in my pocket!  (fyi though, this is *not smart* for those who know you’re bad at paying off your bills and staying on top of it.  you all should stick w/ cash & debit.  and on the plus side, you will probably end up spending less than people like myself since there’s always those studies whic show you save like 20% more by not using credit cards.)

Okay, your turn :)  If someone was customizing a credit card just for you, what would you want from it?  Feel free to add in your own lines for us to fill in too - if I catch some new ones I’ll update my list w/ ’em.  W00T!
