But why would that be a problem, if everyone in America has a gun?
Kaiser’s right. as much as those things have been told over and over, I think they haven’t been said enough times yet. I only use my card when I have enough in cash, but for safety I keep my cash at home and in banks. That justifies the card. the most important advice, though, is the part about paying everything in full and in the right date. I don’t know how the things are there, but here we’ve a monthly interest rate of 12%. And to make it worse, interestes are charged over other interests. If I don’t pay something for two months, I won’t have 24% interests, but rather 25,44%. It looks like almost nothing, but in the long run it fucks anyone up.

I’m too responsible for my own good. I have an account and a debit card, but I hadly use it. I’m always saving. ^^;
So, technically, I never enjoy what I have.
