Remember lenders cannot tell how much you earn from your credit report. But they can tell if you have "maxed out" your credit card limits. Maxing out your credit is a sign of potential financial problems and implies that you may be spending more money than you make. High credit limits affect your score by 30%. Keep your credit card balance 75% or less of your credit limit. If you have two credit cards "maxed out" at $5,000 each, and you get offered a $20,000 credit card, it might be better to transfer balances onto the $20,000 card. Beware! Do not max out this credit card!
