credit cards with good rewards sometimes have an annual fee and after the year, once you've used all the perks, it's useless to repay the annual fee. ex - I wanted tsa precheck, so I found a credit card that had $95 annual fee and gave a $120 credit for tsa precheck AND global entry. saved $25 by doing this, but you don't apply for that every year, so the $95 annual fee became pointless. didn't want to pay it again, so cancelled. some you spend an amount, you earn a certain amount of points
