Alright… So I got two credit cards, both with $1000 lines of credit on them. If I were to charge an upwards of $500 – $600 on one card and not use the other, does the debt to credit ratio get calculated on a per card basis or is it reflected on your entire available credit across all cards? I am trying to increase my credit score and I was wondering if perhaps I should use both cards or if I can use just the one. Thanks.

I am planning to buy some stuff of the internet, but I do not own a credit card. I was told Visa or Mastercard Gift Cards can work like a Credit Card, but they say Debit Card on the card. Will a prepaid Gift Card work if the Only pay option is Credit Card, or does it depend on who your buying it from online? So please only respond if you have attempted this. Thanks.

Hypathetically and without going into details, say someone was dieing of a brain tumor and they wanted to get a bunch of credit cards and loans so he could go to Amsterdam, fuck a hooker of every race and hair color, smoke a lot of pot, and then put a bullet through his head to make this ceaseless headache stop from behind his left eye. What would he need to do to get the most amount of money without any care for the interest rate or anything that other people normally care about.
He doesn’t know if he has any credit history at all. He has never overdrawn from his bank account or anything like that.
