Your credit card rewards might not be worth it

Credit card rewards are only good for you if you are good at them.

Quote
Issuers make money on rewards cards holders regardless, across the credit spectrum. The researchers found that banks profit most from near-prime and prime consumers in the middle of the FICO score distribution. At the high end and the low end of the FICO range, the ways banks make money differ. For subprime consumers, over 60 percent of banks’ revenue on rewards cards comes from interest income. For super-prime consumers, more than 80 percent is from interchange income, meaning the swipe fees merchants pay when people spend. In the middle, banks can make money on both interest charges and swipe fees.

They literally give their life and soul to their community, and the "Jewish community" that gets government funding is nervous of them and undermines them in every which way possible.

I don't know what the story is, but I recall that he was having troubles for years. IINM he was once locked out the shul. Someone local seems to be constantly making them problems.
