Credit card companies often use point schemes to attract more customers. But often these schemes offer very poor value. This is especially true for people who get credit cards in order to borrow money.

In one installment, he quoted Doug Parker of US Airways as saying “Please no new taxes or fees.” I couldn’t believe that he of all people would make that request. At that time, I was the first to comment:
