I found this ad on a website that I frequent. Pretty sad.

American Express would like you to think that having their card in your wallet makes you a success.



Whether you like credit cards or not, you have to admit that this kind of ad is just a tad-bit over-the-top. Anyone who thinks they're a success just because they were able to get American Express plastic has issues!

Here's my view of success (monetarily): not needing to rely on AmEx or any other of the Big Plastic cartel. Having no debt. Having money in the bank and a plan for the future.
