I got an invitation for this scam, but I started giving it some more thought and was thinking if it would actually be worth getting to receive better service at bars and restaurants.
What is the cafords opinion?
$495 for a credit card ![[Roll Eyes]](rolleyes.gif)

Does the black card pay for tickets, or back child support, or bail money?

I was arrested for a DUI about 10 years ago. I think that should qualify to be a member here.

Are you sure this is the best place for financial advise? LOL!!
Read this for a more detailed comparison:

If you're someone that travels or eats out often it may be worth it for the perks you get. I have the SPG AMEX card and it suits my purpose for hotel stays. In the last year I've had 9-10 free nights at Sheratons, which I can't complain about for a $75 annual fee.

Its just that simple. For some reason some people cannot wrap their ideas around this line of thinking. Dunno how you could charge a unnecessary item on a credit card knowing you dont have the money to pay for it.

I did this as well. Paying payments for everything is how people stay poor.

I get rewards for using the credit cards and paying them off by the end of the month so you don't rack up interest charges. Plus get points back, but annual fee that big must be for big ballers with larger bills than me.
