I also visited The Great Orange Satan this morning.

Of particular note to me was MoDo’s offering.

It’s good to see her writing things worth reading again.

One small (very small) item from her column: Why does someone with her money even have a $400 Visa card bill?

All in (salary, lectures, books), she’s got to be pulling down a half million or more per year, so why in the world would you pay interest for lunch or clothes that you could certainly afford to pay for?

And please spare me the “use their money for a few weeks for free” bit. The card companies sell this tripe knowing that some large percentage of their customers will forget or procrastinate in sending their payment on time, and then the fun really begins.

One of the best things that ever happened to me was to torch my credit 10 years ago; it taught me the hard lesson of ‘pay as you go’. Now, other than to purchase a home or car (or emergencies), I find it hard to make sense of using credit for anything else.
