:patrice: So Im thinking about copping a credit card ( :whoa: Im not going to be making a bunch of frivolous expenses or anything like that. Im good with how I handle money).

A couple reasons I want one, I need to build credit. And I would be using it for this side venture Im doing (won't go into details but I know it's going to make me money 100%, Ive been doing it myself for a couple months, just trying to accelerate the process a lil bit)

I don't want to do a secure one (Im not really trying to make a set amount of payments monthly).

Is it possible I can get one with a limit of $2500-$5000? (I have no real credit history mind you).

Based on the details Ive provided, what's the best card for my scenario (decent limit, low apr)?

with no credit history you might get 250-500 but they will ramp that shyt up fast if you use it and keep a balance on it but pay on time. Depending on the company in a year you could be at the 2.5k mark.

best bet is a credit union over a bank but I dont know if you'll get a credit card with no job

pretty sure its walk in, somethin like that id rather walk in anyway

also you can request a credit line increase so if you take out 1500 n pay it off a couple months in a row im sure theyd bump it up. i mean shyt, they want u to take out more credit hopin u cant pay it off :heh:
