I Pay $3,269 a Year in Credit Card Annual Fees, Yet Come Out Way Ahead — Here’s How
I Pay $3,269 a Year in Credit Card Annual Fees, Yet Come Out Way Ahead — Here’s How
11

I pay $3,269 in credit card annual fees each year. If that sounds like a lot, it is. However, I get much more value from holding these cards. I earn almost $4,500 in easy-to-use statement credits. If I'm a bit more savvy, I could earn another $2,400 in statement credits. Plus, I earn several points per dollar on my purchases and can take advantage of many other benefits. Here's a breakdown of why this makes sense for my situation — and what changes I'm considering.
