Hi guys so I'm building app I'm developer myself but I had to spend a few thousand dollars on freelancers using my credit card I'm currently unemployed and living on the money from my last business venture and honestly I'm a bit worried about my spendings. I have the money to payout my credit card ,but they kinda give me some kind of security till the end of the project. So what you guys think should I pay my credit card debt with my own money or should I wait for the launch of the app see how it goes and then pay the credit card debt with the money I made from the app? Also I would like to hear what you guys think about using personal credit card for startup expenses. Thank you!
