Reading your blog reminded about the “bad debt situation” that a lot Americans are right now because of “credit- card” I agree with you that people should be very careful using a credit card and they should use wisely and plan when and where they will use it. And more than anything they should avoids using their credit card for impulse purchases. Another good thing to avoid is…anything your card issuer tries to sell you. And, yes speaking of hidden fees, you should think twice before using your credit card abroad. People should ask themselves before purchasing with credit: Is this something I need? Do I need it now? Do I have the ability to repay? How long will it take me to repay? How much will it ultimately cost me? Another day a friend made me this question? Credit card, A hero or villain? A help or trouble? My answer was both. Very good article!

No financial problems just a terrible memory (when it comes to finance lol.) My hubby has now convinced me to lock it up at home!!
