    well i think you should keep this second credit card only if you can afford it comfortably, even if you decide to close one of them. Its always wise to keep the one which is oldest.

    It's also wise to have a back up for when you lose the other one/have it blocked/forget your PIN/have an emergency.
  • Brilliant, thanks everyone. Really appreciate your help.
