How do you know if you have developed an unhealthy dependency on your credit cards?
Do you find yourself…
- Saying things will get better next month.
- Catching up on your bills with your bonus from work.
- Using your tax return to pay off bills.
- Day dreaming that your credit cards will be paid off someday.
In our electronic age, credit cards can be a great convenience. They allow you to shop and even purchase big ticket items without carrying around a money-belt full of cash. Credit cards allow you to buy online and receive your purchase at your doorstep within days.
Credit cards, however, are not a good way to finance your lifestyle.
- Do you find yourself using your credit cards every month to buy basic necessities like groceries and gas or to pay your utilities?
- Do you see your minimum payments increase because you cannot stop using your credit cards?
- Are you continually searching for cards with 0% interest so that you can do a balance transfer with a lower monthly payment, only to do another balance transfer six months later?
- Are you caught in one of these vicious cycles?
