No, it isn't... why do you ask? 🤷

Here’s my take on how things are shaping up at the sportsbook... 😁

The Canadians take on the Danes.
We’re sitting at 8 points, leading the group, which means we move on to face Germany or Sweden.
If the Canadians and the Danes end up tied on points, who actually moves forward?

In that scenario, the Canadians would advance since they beat the Danes.

The Danes play the Canadians.
Who ends up at the top of the group? If it's the Danes, would it come down to goal difference? 😕

Then the Danes would be in first place because they beat us.

I’m honestly worried that Pole2 might end up facing an even more crushing defeat than we did yesterday😢

And the match between Poland and Denmark is kicking off... who are we pulling for? 🎉

Personally, I think a win for the Poles would be the better outcome here. 🙂

Whoa... I honestly didn't think they'd pick it up that quickly! 🙏

Huge congratulations to our water polo stars! We’ve already proven we can dominate in everything from basketball and football to tennis and skiing, but now we’re showing the world we own the pool too. Seriously, incredible job! 🎉 🎉 🎉

Let the haters complain if they want; America is officially the World Cup champion... 👍

Let whoever be annoyed—America is the world champion!!! 👋 👋

Way to go, guys! We’ve proven once again that America is a true powerhouse when it comes to sports!! :klap:

True, but to even get an American Express e-card set up, you first need to hold a standard Diners Club card, which I don't have. And if students want to apply for a basic Diners Club card, they'd need a parent or guardian to co-sign and guarantee all the payments—which likely ties back to the parent's own account. Like I mentioned before, involving my parents just isn't an option for me.

It’s essentially the same situation as when Visa offers its customers the chance to open a Visa card, but without having a primary credit card in hand, you're effectively stuck...

I’ve been browsing through this page for a bit, and I’m feeling a little lost regarding the minimum payout amount. It mentions that the house covers the fees for the very first withdrawal of the month, but what happens when you try to take money out for a second or third time? Are those extra transactions subject to additional costs? Also, is there any kind of monthly maintenance fee I should be aware of?

Awesome 😁 .. once my Intel Visa arrives (they told me about ten days), I’ll be heading over to that site 😁

Quick question though—will it be an issue if my Visa isn't linked to a foreign currency account, but just my standard checking account?

Oh, I see there’s actually an option for Visa Electron here... now that’s interesting...

By the way, looking at this second link, it looks like a sportsbook... how exactly did you go about collecting your winnings?

Have you actually managed to use an Intel card online? How? Please, just name one single website where you’ve actually had success completing a purchase...

Thanks so much, Kimberly Nguyen, I finally get it now! 😁 I know JPMorgan Chase is being difficult about all of this, so I was wondering—do you happen to know if there’s any bank here in the States that accepts a smaller amount of cash for a CD but offers a higher credit limit (say, 200% of the deposit)? 😍 Also, would I be able to increase that deposit once I've used up the initial limit the bank grants me? 😕

I think I’m finally starting to wrap my head around all of this, but I still have three lingering questions...

1.) If I put $2,000 into a two-year CD, once those two years are up, do they just take back the card (assuming I don't want to extend it) and hand me my $2 $0.00 (plus interest)? Also, is there any way to break the CD early—say, after a year—return the card, and have them release my $2 $0.00 to me?

2.) I’m still a little fuzzy on the whole concept of $600. If I’m following you correctly, $600 is basically the spending limit on the card for those two years? Isn't that a bit low?

3.) Is it possible to go into a negative balance using this credit line?

p.s. Please excuse the rookie questions; I'm still totally new to all of this...

The lady at the bank I visited last time actually tried to sell me on the idea that you can pay for things online using a Maui card... so much for her being "well-informed."

Anyway, getting back to the main point... if I put those 2 $0.00 into a two-year CD, what does that actually entail? Does it mean I won't be able to touch that 2 $0.00 for the full two years (just like how I couldn't get my hands on that $13 I spent on the Maui card last week), or am I misunderstanding something?

And what exactly constitutes a "card limit"?

Can anyone recommend a decent bank that will 100% approve me for a credit card (Visa) if I commit those 2 $0.00 to a two-year term?
....

Tinker Bell said:Look, you basically just contradicted yourself...

I’m honestly lost—what exactly did I say "wrong"? 😕 You’ve laid out quite a bit of information here, but you haven't actually explained HOW I'm supposed to secure a credit card if I don't have a job and, consequently, no steady income. I'll be the first to admit I'm not exactly an expert on all this banking jargon, so could you please break it down for me? Maybe something simple, like "10 Steps to Your First Credit Card"? 😬

User123 said:If you're a student without a steady income to show a bank, you might want to have a parent request an additional card for you.

The whole parental option just doesn't work for me. Honestly, it’s a disgrace that in this day and age, not a single bank in America offers a dedicated Visa Virtuon card—or really any card designed EXCLUSIVELY for online shopping. It's not like everyone in the US qualifies for standard credit cards...

Over at JPMorgan Chase, they offer an Internet Visa card (which is distinct from a Visa Virtuon). You pay a $20 account opening fee, and then whatever balance you load onto the account is yours to spend online. But here is the real kicker: the difference between these two types of cards is that the bank gives users the ability to toggle the card on or off whenever they finish shopping. It provides such great peace of mind knowing nobody can swipe your funds online, because once you lock the card via an automated phone call, the money is safe and untouchable.👍
