This is exactly why I have not applied. I already have 4 Amex cards (Blue Cash, Costco, Hilton, and Business), all with generous credit limits -- especially my Costco card where it seems they were in a particularly generous mood that day. I am afraid that if I apply for yet another one it will trigger the dreaded financial review, and I will end up worse off than I started.
