I haven’t really talked about that kind of stuff with people I know. I could be surrounded by people who have big debt and just don’t know.
A quick googling says that about half of all credit card holders carry some kind of balance each month, so clearly there must be some people in my orbit not paying it off.
- tptacek 6mo agoI'd be one of them, but I can't be, because I don't use credit cards.
- criddell 6mo agoI’m too much of a cheapskate to carry a balance and pay interest. And it’s my cheapskate tendencies that makes me use the credit card for everything for the benefits.
- tptacek 6mo agoI 100% get it. I have minmaxer friends who do the same thing, are very good at it, and will never get into trouble. My thing is, revolving credit is a default in the US, and it's not a sensible default for most people.
