Maybe, but many cards offer a much lower interest rate when you transfer your balance over to them. It might not be 0%, but it's not 18.5% either.

Go over to the FatWallet forums, there are literally DOZENS of cards with a 0% introductory APR for 12 months on balance transfers. There's a one-time 3% fee to make the balance transfer (min $10 max $75).

It's actually +EV to carry a debt if you know what you're doing with this stuff.
