Personally, I love it when people ask me to apply for credit cards – particularly when the words, “0% interest for 12 months” and “no annual fees” are involved. The combination of lower rates on my savings accounts and increasing balance transfer fees are making rate arbitrage more difficult, but it’s still worth it.
