then you've had credit card debt.

Sure, if you want to count the period between the time I make the purchases and the time when the statement comes as being "in debt."

Dude, repeat after me.

"I've never had large credit card debt."

As far as I'm concerned, it's a debt only when you have to pay interest on it :icon26:

No a debt is when you owe someone else money. Simple as that.

But you're wrong.

debt Pronunciation Key (dt)
n.

1. Something owed, such as money, goods, or services.
2.a An obligation or liability to pay or render something to someone else.
2. b The condition of owing: a young family always in debt.
3. An offense requiring forgiveness or reparation; a trespass.

What you're saying is equivalent to a 6 year old mispronouncing a word and saying that he can say it any way he wants to. Because.

You don't get it, do you? Of course I know the definition of debt; otherwise, I wouldn't have replied with this statement:

zewulf wrote:Sure, if you want to count the period between the time I make the purchases and the time when the statement comes as being "in debt."

But that doesn't mean its literal definition is practical or in line with reality. I would think when they take statistics of the people in debt, they don't count people such as myself who has a perfect credit record.

Since you people now seem so inclined on sticking to the literal meaning of debt, then there's something wrong with feedback's statement as well:

feedback wrote:It should be illegal to allow people in debt to buy things on credit. The companies that allow people to do that make the situation (of idiots) even worse.

If they do make that illegal, they might as well outlaw credit card altogether, because it'll be pretty much useless then. As soon as you make one purchase, you can't make another one, because you're already in debt. For me (and many others I'm sure), using a credit card is simply a matter of convenience and not because I like to owe people money. For one, it saves me the trouble of having to carry a bunch of cash around.

Lol.

He has a point.

Skerge or helmet?

Debt is a good thing. My credit score is a few points under the max.

the average person should fear bebt and interest.

successfull corps/companys, and country never have debt ey
