I am 21 and have no credit. After reading many books/articles about money etc. it has been laser printed in my brain to stay away from plastic. I am debt free now and plan to stay that way and if I did use a credit card, I would make sure I had the money already to pay it off each month.
So, is it necessary (building credit)? This just came to mind because I noticed a few of the regular guys I see on here mentioning things about using credit cards kind of nonchalantly so I was wondering what a fastlaners perspective is when it comes to this?
1.) Should I build up my credit and why?
2.) What is the best way to go about doing this? (Yes, I have googled it multiple times in the past and have an idea but just wondering what YOUR take on it is)
Thanks!
