I learned my lesson the hard way. I no longer have ANY carry-over credit balances. Zero debt.

I feel terrible. I accidentally reported this comment when I thought I was up voting it! I have up voted it now!

I got rid of all our credit cards years ago. The interest is ridiculous! You end up paying a lot more in interest than the the cost of the items purchased!

If I don't have the money...I don't buy it. Interest rates are ridiculous!!

No! Since I found out about Dave Ramsey and his concept for staying out of debt, it has become important to me not to do so.

No. But I understand if people have to, but we are blessed enough to be able to pay it off every month.

Check out the Dave Ramsay system for getting out of credit card, and other debt! It has worked for me.

Why buy more than I can pay for? The federal government does that, which causes inflation.

My credit card pays me, in the form of points. I do not want to pay my credit card company.

I believe more angry, would be a better question. Confidence in our government is at a historic low.

Happiness is folly. Get hard. Raise your own food. Have a huge family and you'll find eternal joy.
