Don't close the credit card, but move everything else away, and put one bill on the card (or just use it twice a year for gum)?

Assuming a good cash-back rate of 2%, $2000 spent on the credit card for $40 back. The point being he's spending the $2000 anyway, so he'd rather get $40 back from his credit card company rather than $0 back if he used cash or deb

It's complicated. In general, no, due to different base technologies (GSM vs CDMA), and the US carriers' unlock policies (the carriers can sometimes lock your phone to their network). In specific, maybe, because some phones (most

Says "Stock market is closed" at 10:45AM EDT. Is it really?

An exact date would be better, for those who turned 18 in the year displayed.

It's still a nearly context-free headline, which is a pet peeve of mine at Hacker News. The headline should contain actual information that tells me why I care and should click. "Greg" is quite insufficient, with the only sa

My feedback: The virtual card numbers and the ease of generating them are tempting. But I'm already protected from fraud by my existing Citi DoubleCash (2% cash back, no annual fee). I'm not going to lose 1% cash back and the fee
