    CL should depend on how much you spend!

    An adviser I used to work with taught me that an ideal CL should actually depend on how much you spend and NOT on your annual income.

    To be specific: Total CL should be 10 – 15 times your total monthly spends.

    This way, assuming that you always PIF every month, your total utilization never/rarely exceeds 10%, which is a good in respect to FICO credit score.

    An adviser once told me that the ideal total CL should actually depend on how much you spend and NOT on your annual income.

    To be specific: Total CL 10-15 x your total monthly spends. As long as you PIF every month, your total utilization never/rarely exceeds 10%, which is a good in respect to FICO.
