To what do you owe that privilege? Do you just never use credit cards or careful about your spending?

I have no debts
then again, I have no credit
cards or otherwise
tongue
I pay cash for everything!
I don't even like to owe my mom money
but she is about the only person i'll borrow from
but only if I know i can pay her back right away
and she borrows from me too
but that's not credit
so yeah...
credit = ick!

I have no credit card debt. That is something to be very thankful for.

More than I expected actually. I thought this would be the shortest thread in history.

Many credit cards, much debt. PS: I'm christening the glass as I write this. Thanks again. Did you put it on your credit card ? Paws

Glad you are using it. No I did not use a credit card.

I have been in credit card debt all my life until recently. It is the most wonderful feeling. I will NEVER be in credit card debt again.

I have two credit cards and I just don't buy what I can't pay for.......

I like to have the ability to acquire what I want and when I want it. I save for it, and then I buy it, or take that trip, or whatever it happens to be. It's the way I was raised, I guess. I'm not cheap, I don't mind spending money, but with everything else that can happen in life, debt is one thing I don't want to have to worry about.

Impressive. I think the average Canadian owes $35,000, excluding mortages. Paws

Very wise. I only told my son once that credit cards will bring you down if you aren't careful. I hoped if he learned from any of my mistakes it would be this one. Now that he is out of college, the credit cards applications are flooding in. I watch him throw them all away and just smile.

Well done you Assets.

Only put garage bills on my card that may have taken a few months to pay off.

But these days mostly clear. I'm not one for running up debts I can't afford. If it is not a desperate requirement, I go without, hoping I have taught my children the same.
