No thank you that'd be too much info to give out hehe. He knows he made a good investment, I know he made a good investment since I can hear the "I love my life" sound in his voice everytime I talk to him over the phone which's been only since he bought his triplex so don't really need you to verify. Actually I don't even know where he bought the property I'll have to ask, all I know he used to live in the ndg area (believe atleast a half hour drive from Delta Centre-Ville where I usually stay when I'm visiting there) last time I visited him about a year ago, however, not sure if he bought the property in the same area or somewhere else.Comment

I think you are a huge exception there, Peaches.I have at least a dozen credit cards. IMO, they are the best way to spend "cash". I use the ones with rebates or rewards and pay them in full every month. None has an annual fee. I don't even know what the interest rates are on them since I've never paid interest. When one comes out with a 0% rate I use it exclusively until it tops out then pay it off right before the 0% expires.
Purchasing with credit cards gives you more benefits - you have more pull with getting satisfaction with a company when you have a chargeback you can put into process. In addition, many cards double the warranty on products you purchase with them and carry additional insurance when you rent a car.
Yes, there are people who can't handle credit cards, but personally I've found them VERY advantageous in comparison to cash over the years
I'm also a BIG fan of 0% purchases. Just make sure to pay it off WITH A RECEIPT a month before it's due and put your cash into a savings account until then
I haven't even made a cc purchase in years. I should probably start racking up rewards points too. That is a good idea and something others that I know do.

If you can knock down the principle quick it can work out well.
we bought our home ten years ago for 240K houses on my street now sell for about 400 k
We paid the house of in the first eight years so it is know free and clear less taxes.
Sure beats paying rent, not to mention we are looking at building a new home in the 600k range. So its nice to have the 400k to start off with.My God there's Porn on here!

I've been told many times I'm "different"
I only have one debit card and it doubles as an ATM card. I never keep more then $500 in the account. Yes, I know the banks will cover fraud, but when my mortgage check bounces before I know someone's cleaned out my account...well, it doesn't give me the warm fuzzies.
For months my BP card has given me 10% off BP gas, 5% of travel and 2% off everything else. I've been using it like crazy except for the "everything else" because Chase gives me 3% back on those charges. Target Visa gives me a 10% shopping day every $XK I spend (can't remember the exact amount. I can easily turn that into a VERY decent % rebate - especially around Christmas. It counts for everything - even food and on sale items. AAA gives me 5% back on all gas for those times I can't find a BP card and the new Spiritair is giving a mile a dollar and 2 miles a dollar for their plane tickets.
It's like a game to me, lol.
Plus I look at it this way - I have such enormous credit limits on so many cards, if I find out I have a terminal disease my friends and I are going to REALLY enjoy the months I have left
