Out of the 20,000 or so financial institutions you think they are all evil? You are biting off your nose to spite your face not using a credit card (unless it is for self control reasons). I get 5% back for gas and groceries for doing an activity I would anyhow. A free $600/year and using their money for free for a few weeks is a great deal for me.

I don't have a cc either.

1. I hate paying bills
2. I don't have any credit history
3. I don't need one

Good luck buying a house unless you have a ton of cash.

1/3 down no doc loan. Good rate too.

Wow, they're doing no docs now with only 1/3 down? Not bad. When I was selling mortgages no docs needed at least 50% down.

Not to mention all the 0.0% introductory deals good for a year and they allow balance transfers too.

Heck, my wife and I have not paid ANY CC interest in 3-4 years now.

I think he's saying that he gets (and uses) 0% balance transfers (with no balance transfer fee), makes minimum payments, rolls the balances into new 0% balance transfer offers before the previous 0% rate expires, and repeats the cycle.

I've been rolling a balance for ten years. It's around $40K now, and I've never paid a late fee or interest charge. Basically, it's been a free loan.

Exactly Engineer, and you earn bonus' too!

Right now we are remodeling and adding on, all % free via CC and earning $$$ towards a car as well.

It is all a game.
