I'm not concerned about linking PayPal to credit cards, as I've full control over what PayPal does with the link. If they ever yanked funds from the credit card, I'd simply dispute the charge as unauthorized. The only down side being, that PayPal closes your account if you do so...but that's better than being out $$.

Why go thru the hassle of opening another account? You just need 1 checking account - although most of us have forgotten how to write checks by now - and 1 money market account that you can transfer funds between the two, and have done with it. (A checking account should have minimal funds anyway). Obviously this is apart from your portfolio money.
I understand your view on a credit card link, but a dispute can be long and painful.
