My husband and I have a credit card for actually building credit. We use it for things we would use our debit card for, so we have the money already, and pay it off immediately
you need a credit card in this life. tell us how we donโt need one and ill deactivate it.
Rich people use lines of credit. The interest rate is way cheaper than credit cards.
I use credit cards to buy anything I need to buy to live. Like gas, groceries and auto insurancet. I pay it all off every month. Instead of using cash I use credit and I get points for free flights and vacations. He isn't right on this one when you are Disciplined.
And how does one make travel arrangements without a credit card? Fill me in on that?
I don't even have debit cards.
Truth is if you need to get a loan and you have no credit history your screwed. I use a credit card for every purchase. I get cash back in allow it balance to be reported by keeping it at 20-30% level and then I pay it off before I have to pay Intrest.

I use my credit card for convenience and to get the 1% back from my bank (I pay it off every month). I get a great deal of satisfaction knowing my bank pays me several hundred dollars a year for using a card that I pay no interest on.
