I have been named legal guardian over a mentally-ill sibling who has gotten into trouble in the past with spending on credit cards above and beyond her means to pay. I have closed all current accounts, but what is the best way to ensure that no more credit cards are issued to her?

My friend lives in Morocco and would like to get a Visa or MasterCard credit card to make online purchases. Unfortunately, no banks in this country, to our knowledge, issue credit cards. Is there an international bank or other solution? A low-limit card will suffice. Thank you

Sgt. Pepper asked:
I’ve got all my bills paid off (school and credit cards) and i was looking to cancel all the credit accounts and just open one account with a card that has good benefits for using it. Then i’m going to pay my insurance, phone, car and other expenditures with that card and just pay it off every month so i don’t have to pay interest, but i get benefits. Anyone know of any good cards?

Doug G asked:
I’ve opened a few credit cards lately, but don’t plan on using them, only for emergencies. Will just having 4 or 5 credit cars available for my use somehow hurt my credit score, or credit in general for future loans I might want?

I have a few credit cards and only one with a balance, should I close the empty ones or keep them. I am trying to up my credit score and am not sure which is better.

Pepper asked:
I am currently a college student with 2 checking accounts (Wamu- 3 years & BOA- 1 year) and 1 credit card (Citi- 1 year). I have always met the requirements for my checking accounts and paid all my credit card bills on time. As for loans, I do have about $10,000 of student loans in debt. I was wondering if it is okay for me to get another credit card. Also, many say that having a lot of credit cards are bad for you. What is the reccomendation of how many bank accounts and credit cards should I have so that my credits would not go down? Thanks in advance!
