I expected a smaller number. I guess I should do a better job writing about money saving tips. :-) I am somewhat surprised by the poll results as well. 33% (currently) say they carry a credit card balance.

Even in college, I never paid more than 17% on a card, and I had $20k in interest when I left. I guess it's easy to do when you miss payments or default on a loan, but I'll try to make sure that never happens to me. The highest rate on my $80k in non-home debt is 6.5%, and that's tax deductible student loan interest. I’m still amazed that people pay more than 20% on credit cards.

This would help to understand why the suggested offer is the best and what the alternatives are.

It will split the savings value into various components. I was able to receive more information about the card it has selected for me by clicking on the “more savings details” link.
