5. That's good. Cindy might spill coffee on her dress and would need to replace it quick.

6. That's how much a condo costs. McCain is a condo shopaholic!
John buys another one everytime Cindy pays off the credit card bill, so she tries to carry a balance to prevent it.

As far as I know ...

9. Not that big of a deal
If you travel a lot and do a lot of business, high limits are surprisingly useful. Back when I had a small and modestly profitable business I would sometimes move more than $100k through my personal credit card in a month, which is an immensely convenient way to manage business expenses. I was far from a millionaire, but many credit card companies have nice high limit cards for people that need to buffer large quantities of short-term expenses. Since the credit card companies get a cut of the transaction, they make a mint on those cards even if the balance never carries.
