What country do you live in where you dont have CC with cashback? Basically you earn a return % everytime u charge the card. Mine is 1.5%, alot get %2. So for every $100 I charge, I receive $1.50 back. APR is the interest rate to the balance on your CC, but it doesn't get tacked on immediately, generally 20 something days after. If you constantly pay off your balance, you don't pay interest, so your CC is essentially a debit card that earns you cashback. Make sense?

This. I don't understand why people have this thing against credit. Unless you're absolutely loaded you're not going to be able to get one without a loan. Banks want confidence that you'll pay back your loan. Your credit score is your best indicator of that.

If you just PRETEND it's a debit card and pay the monthly balance immediately, then there is no reason NOT to have a credit card.

I get like $300 a year in free money due to the cash back thing.

The idiots who don't pay the monthly balance are mentally disabled.

man receives $100 wage in the only option: a bank account
the bank, uses the $100, to lend $1000 to the man.
the man uses the $1000 to buy a car, to get a better job.
the man gets a $200 job
the man pays the bank back $2000
the mans car is designed to fail or need expensive repairs after 3 years, because the car manufacturer needs more revenue to pay the interest on the loan it took out to build the car plant.
the man buys a new car, with another loan from the bank.

I refuse to use a credit card because there is the inconvenience of paying the credit card bill and having to carry around multiple cards. I like simple systems so if I can I will cut out the middleman wherever I can. I also despise the financial system and how it is needlessly complex so that retards can skim money off the surface as it moves through their system that does something which the original system should do. If I did own a credit card it would be because I was poor and needed the additional security / cash / flexibility but I am not so I do not.

>> No.18705397

I've made between 5-10 K in credit card cash back/ sign up bonuses in the past decade. I've never paid an annual for or a cent in interest because I autopay my balance every month. I've had several credit cards stolen over the years (I used to drink a lot) and it's never been ore than a 10 minute phone call to get a new one sent and the fraudulent charges removed. If I used cash or debit that money would be gone. I've saved a few hundred bucks in the past month by doing chargebacks on vendors who cancelled services but refused to give me a refund. My good boy score is around 780 without ever giving a single thought towards improving it. I live a frugal lifestyle and have never spent a penny "becuz i get cash back derp", if your IQ is triple digits that won't be an issue for you either. If your IQ is triple digits credit cards are literally free money. Of course their entire business model is predicated on the fact that the majority of Americans are idiots, those idiots fund my free money. Thank you, idiots.

If you recognize that you won't be able to control yourself with a credit card then you're actually pretty intelligent because it can absolutely be a trap. But if you have self control and can work the system it's a pretty sweet set up.
