After a slow spring of churning, I got more aggressive over the summer. This is when I realized that it is not a good time to apply for Chase business cards. I decided I needed to slow down with Chase in general so I pivoted to some other cards. Here are our credit card applications…
Well, this is going to be a short update. After a somewhat productive winter of churning where I earned the Companion Pass, spring was very eventful on the global news front, but less so when it came to opening credit cards.
