I have three credit cards in my wallet. I have three because each one offers different perks that I like to take advantage of whenever possible. Whenever I pull out my wallet, my friends always feel the need to comment on my credit cards. “Why do you have so many?” they ask. I never really thought of three as “too many.” This week, I read an article about a man who has 50 credit cards. Yes, 50. I sure wish he’d been standing next to me when I struggled to choose which one of my three I wanted to use. That would have shut my friends up.
The man with 50 credit cards
Scott Bilker has 50 credit cards, but he used to have more than 80. Partially out of a desire to see if the banks would keep extending him credit, and partially as a means to save money, Bilker began a quest to collect as many cards as possible. He’s a long way off, though. According to Business Insider, the Guinness World Record holder has close to 1,500 credit cards.
When Adam Scruggs and his wife, Danielle, heard U.S. Republican and presidential candidate Mitt Romney make an off-the-cuff $10,000 bet during last December’s Iowa debate, it motivated them to create Mittbucks, a site that puts Romney’s annual salary into perspective. Here’s the message you’ll find when you visit Mittbucks:
“Mitt Romney made over $21.7 million in 2010. For most people, that number is so huge it's hard to comprehend. Mittbucks puts Romney's income into perspective for you, showing you what ordinary stuff would have to cost him before he could relate to your daily experience with money.”
According to Statistics Canada, the average Canadian family of two or more made $74,700 in 2009. The average individual made just $31,500. Plug those numbers (an average weekly earnings of $605.77) into Mittbucks and here’s the response you get: “For Mitt to have an understanding of your day-to-day expenses a dozen eggs would have to cost him $1,111.35.” Interesting.
Like a true Canadian, my first thought was that it couldn’t be that bad in Canada…could it?

Move over dance flash mobs, there’s another type of social media-driven group activity on the rise. This one requires no physical skill, only a bit of cash. A new craze that's been coined the 'cash mob' is popping up all over the United States, spurring strategic spending in these tough economic times. And it's only a matter of time before the trend hits Canada.
Here’s how it works:
Social media users get together online, meet up near a store, and then go shopping en masse. Organizers choose the location but keep it a secret until right before. And participants commit to spending at least $20 during the visit. It is simple, fun, exciting, and can really lift a business – though I’m sure the lineups are maddening.
