The way he is doing it makes it so that he gets more money too. Both the bank and him benefit.Bragging about credit scores just means banks love to put you in debt. Because you're likelier to make them richer..

If you use it on monthly bills that you would of used your own money for anyway and pay it all off early there isnt any risk and you get money from doing it too from cashback.It's more risk.
Well hot damn, who would've thought it could be all so simple?Take that 400-500 car payment, put it in a Roth IRA, 25-30 years later you got easily over a million that's tax and penalty free.

I don't see why more people don't think like this...we've got nothing but time after all :whiteparadise:
Actually its using money that you have earned but you delay using it on your monthly bills by charging it on the card for cashback.It's always riskier leveraging future earnings you haven't earned yet.
And people should be budgeting things like monthly bills before even paying for a car.
Actually its using money that you have earned but you delay using it on your monthly bills by charging it on the card for cashback.
Then the next month you pay the charge on the card from the last month full and then start it again by paying your next monthly bills with your card.
Doing this process makes sure you get extra money by simply using money that you would have spent yourself.
Therefore no risk whatsoever and makes you a bit of money.
As long as there is a safe method that can be done to make money that can be figured out by most people including myself then the problem is on the person and not the card itself.I understand what you're saying and the cash back bonuses are what drives the activity. If you're disciplined enough to pay your cc full every month that's fine. You've got discipline. But overall a lot of people, millions, don't do this. Hence the bad habit forming.
Again it's always riskier leveraging future earnings.

Student loans can be blamed on the loan and not the person but credit cards can hardly take the blame for someones recklessness.
Its the same thing as paying your bills in cash. 1 month delay doesnt change much.I think the blame is on both the person and the idea of debt. Gotta blame the person. Nobody's forcing anyone to go into debt they cannot repay.
What you propose is relatively safe staying disciplined. But it's riskier than just paying your bills with cash. You may like the benefits of waiting, I get it, but paying bills with cc invites a level of risk moreso than just paying it.

Again what happens when Cash Man crashes his car, and doesn't have insurance to cover it or cash to fix/replace it? How is debt risky when my CC company splits the merchant fees they charge to vendors with me and sends me a monthly check at no cost? 
Like I said I just replaced my A/C and it cost me $12K. I could have financed it at 0%, and I had the cash to pay it out right, but I upped my CC balance and put it on my credit card instead and paid off the balance IMMEDIATELY. CC company cut me a check for $240 PLUS 2% of my other expenditures for the month at the end of the billing cycle. Again I obviously could have paid it cash, and I essentially did.... but I made an extra $240 "going into debt" for a couple of hours. There are ways to finesse the shyt but you have to have the cash and know what the fukk you're doing, which @Truefan31 doesn't.i feel a large percentage of people with credit card debt put emergency expenses onto the card because they have no savings. if they didn't have the cash flow to pay the emergency expenses in the first place, they likely won't have the funds to make more than the minimum once they put it on the card.
credit card companies know this and keep upping the limit on people who make minimums on time and are close to their credit limit. life happens and they charge even more to the card.![]()
