Seems that the other poster may be one of those folks who believes that if they don't experience something, or see something, it can't exist and anyone who says it does is either lying or just too dumb to be alive and clearly inferior to him/her/it.. Or that all he/she/it knows is all there IS to know....same idea.

In any case, glad the other poster never had an issue with paying his credit card debt, but it doesn't mean that others won't, at times. Other than that, meh, who cares what he thinks?

Wait-if you banged the hookers after scoring the coke-didn't you already profit?

Hookers run credit checks too-make sure you maintain a high credit score

Love that comment. I guess with a high credit score you can get high class hookers now. I'm sure there are very high end escort services that does credit checks prior to business.

oh yeah, I hear that once you break the 800 credit score barrier it opens up a world of much better hookers.

You're doing it wrong. Put that account on auto pay and have it draw from a checking account that earns interest. You'll float 30-60 days of purchase interest free and allow yourself to make money on the money you already spent. It's beautiful.

Get all the high-limit cards you can. Use them just enough to keep them in good standing. If you ever need to get out of the country in a hurry, get all the cash advances as quick as you can , head for the airport and don't look back. It gives a refreshing sense of security to know that you can do that, however improbable it may be. There are no guarantees in life, cover all the bases.

By the way is it still possible to get large cash advances from a bank teller against a credit card, or do they just send you to the ATM in the corner? It's been more than ten years since I got a cash advance of several thousand dollars.

Since I'm not charging thousands every month and since interest rates are still near rock bottom, the float is so small for me it's not even worth considering.
