I have 5
Trying to stack 0% promotional ones and have been transferring my old balances as I build credit

Have seen guys that have a card for each use (gas, grocery, dining, general, etc) seems like a good strategy

What y'all think of this?

7 myself and will probably open one or two more by the end of the year depending on my churning strategy.

I literally use credit for EVERYTHING, unless it's a cash-only situation.
Main reason though, is the rewards points. If I'm going to spend my money, at least give me some of my shyt back. So I use different cards so different purchasing categories: for example, I have a chase card and a discover that each offer 5% cashback for rotating categories each quarter, another chase card that offers a flat 1.5% cashback on every purchase, and the credit card I have through my credit union increases the APY% of my interest bearing checking account depending on how much I spend monthly.

about 8 but my daily driver is fidelity visa
Same I'm been using that for my main.
I also just got Discover IT cash back that is 0% for almost a year and also had 5% cash back and they also do a cashback match as well. Only thing I don't like is they rotate their cashback categories each quarter so its not on all your spending.

Trying to get the AMEX Blue Cash card and make that my daily though
