I may just be in a curious mood today - how did consumer debt yield you $250k - if you don't mind my asking?

EXACTLY why I'm asking...

Did a cash advance on credit card to help pay on first 30 year loan on my 165k home 10 years ago. Sold that home in early 08' made 140k.

Used 84k of that blood money to buy 425k house 30 year loan in 09' that I sold in 2011 for 475k. Made 60k

Used CC for multiple purchases of gold/silver in 08' up about 35k.

Made probably 3k in gift cards from Amex last 4 years

Bought last 3 vehicles at 0.9% while that 75l was earning 5% for years in high yield checking, now down to 2%
