So instead of viewing an internet poll I have to picture an internet pole?

:( You make Baby Jesus cry.

I understand my spending habits, my income, and my current debt load. In my situation, a credit card doesn't work.

I don't think there's a debit card that offers as many benefits/rewards as a good CC.

Most of the decorations in our home, the entire guest bathroom and countless other purchases have been made possible by the redeeming of reward points.

We are staying at a posh resort for a long weekend starting tonight...paid for with reward points.

If someone gets ahold of my card and charges $19k for what sound like surface to air missles (actually happend to me), I get a new card overnighted and don't lose any spending power.

I get a concierge service, automatic car rental insurance, road side assistance and other benefits from my card.

I also get to use the credit card company's money free for over a month.

CC > DC

Is this your employer's corporate card, or totally personal?

They're not charging you for access to your money. they are charging you for a service.

Personal.

I don't use a corporate card much anymore. When I do, my employer keeps the rewards.

Absolutely not, but my debit card isn't going to allow me to carry a debt load month to month, and that's more important in my current situation than collecting whatever rewards.

Do you charge your mortgage payment on it, or buy new cars with it? :lol:
A whole vacation and bathroom remodel is a pretty large benefit. How long did it take to accumulate it?

If I could, I would.

It wasn't the whole bathroom remodel (labor) but all the cabinets, fixtures, etc.

The whole vacation isn't paid for, but the room is.

Our mortgage, insurance (home and auto), electric, cleaning and lawn bills are either paid by check or autopay.

Everything else goes on CC.
