I can't believe no one has brought up "stoozing", taking the
max from a zero-percent balance transfer offer and depositing it
in something like Vanguard Prime Money Mkt.

Sounded kinda silly to me, but I decided to try it and see how it
works. I guess I spent several hours getting the card, and getting
a balance transfer check and depositing it with Vanguard. Now I
spend about 5 minutes each month, while paying bills, to make
the minimum payment. I'll pocket $400-500 by year's end.

Not really sure it's worth it, but it gives me a great deal of personal
satisfaction to take these (the credit-card companies') scumbags
money !
