I've almost never kept a balance on a credit card. If I can't get a
real loan (i.e. bank loan with reasonable terms), then that means I
probably can't afford whatever it is I want to buy.


Must be nice... I don't have the option of very many luxuries, so I need
credit from time to time for necessities...


Is your computer a luxury or a necessity?




I said "very many luxuries". Never said that I didn't have *any*

My PC is a luxury as well as my DSL, although it's only $5 more a month than
dial up, and so is my Dish Network, but I only have the basic package. Those
are my luxuries... What are yours?

I still use dial-up and have only the 3 channels I can pick up with the
antenna on my TV. However, I do have no debt other than my home
mortgage and I'm making additional principal payments each month that
are equal to the monthly payment so I can get completely out of debt
reasonably quickly. Then I can buy another airplane! :-)

I am so glad that you can afford to do so.

Again, DSL cost me less than $5 per month more than dial up. To me it is
work the extra cost because of 1) speed and 2) doesn't tie up the phone
line.

Dish network, my wife watches a couple of kids and that was the main reason
that we got it. When was the last time you had 4 kids that don't belong to
you all day, everyday at your house with 3 channels? But I admit, we enjoy
the dish too.
