Iwritecode Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 QUOTE(Steff @ Jul 21, 2005 -> 02:28 PM) We pay ours off every month.. and with Discover giving cash back.. AMEX giveing Jim golf points.. and Chase giving us airline miles.. we can't complain. I use credit cards for everything unless I absolutely have to use cash. I love Discover. Its the first card I got when I turned 18 and have had it ever since. We just signed up for some program from them where we get even more cash back when we use our cards for things like amusement parks, zoos, water parks, etc... We plan on going to a few while on vacation next month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iwritecode Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Jul 21, 2005 -> 05:56 PM) Nuke, you have a point about people living within their means. It's kind of like when pro athletes or Hollywood people go broke. If a pro athlete is living so extravagantly that he is living check to check and broke at the end of every month, then he is no better off than the average man. Sure he might have nicer s***, but he's stressing about money just like the next man. When I was younger and we would drive by the big expensive houses in our town my parents would always say "Those people don't have a lot of money. Just bigger bills." Sometimes it's so true.

I was offered and accepted a Citi Dividend MasterCard earlier this year It's the only card I have and I just got a nice dividend check for over a hundred smackers a couple of weeks ago. NICE!

I'm in debt up to my eyeballs." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure I'd be in debt and have to work until the day I die but you can't take it with you right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NICE! That's basically the same card I've got...I get a nice 5% back on anything I spend at gas stations or grocery stores. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
