And that's the problem with credit cards. Even if you have enough cash in the bank, you still hit a wall when you reach the credit limit.


I've watched a VH1 programme where they talked about top 50 things to own if you are rich, I think. In the first three places was the black American Express, a credit card with no limit ohmy.gif I'm suprised Google owners don't have it, since they can probably afford it!

Well, you'd think Google execs would have those unlimited credit lines...

Platinum level or whatsit, right? They're frickin millionaires...

Oh well, s*** happens to the best of us.

Why do they need credit cards in the first place? I mean if they have all the money they do, why have a credit card? Just carry around a debit card, or cash.

And get mugged ? biggrin.gif lol ..

Actually the crazy thing about HAVING so much of money is where to spend it. I bet google can make a difference if they spend more than what they are doing now on customers, it would really shoot up googles stats in the market. Infact, if they start the exact same marketing what M$ and Apple does, one day they might be the biggest company in history to be socially active.

Well, this is interesting, but not very serious, but I just keep wondering now, how much that dinner could have cost them ? biggrin.gif

hehe.. you don't seriously think the drinks alone cost $5000, main course $20,000 and dessert $10,000, do you?

My mum has 3 credit cards.... all maxed..... I don't know how they can justify accepting her :| (2 from the same provider....).

Anyway, that sounds a bit expensive, I wouldn't care if I was a billionarre id' still buy home brand biggrin.gif, I like it more with certain products anyway.

Never, never, NEVER! will I own a credit card.

And you guys must also consider that the currency is different here in Brazil (Reais), which is roughly nowadays ~R$ 2,10 per 1 USD. So it must have been a hell of a meal... or they must have spent already on other services, like hostel, taxi, etc, a more reasonable theory. Do you guys have any idea of what was the restaurant's name? I might know it (it doesn't mean I can have a meal there, sure).

My first thought was that they're cheating with taxes... We own google but no, no money... biggrin.gif

Well funny incident however. I guess the rich people have credit cards with "low" limits in case someone tries to overcharge them.
