I don't think I've ever had a month where I didn't pay my credit card off in full.

It's been several decades and the month we carried a balance it was a mistake

Does it count if I fully pay it off every month?

Nice flex. Paying off $150k to $200k per month!

Hawk Talons

His baseline was 100K, not 150K. Let's not get crazy here.

Sounds terrible, might not be too bad if mortgage is vast majority of the debt

A trip on the card, an extra thousand or two this month or that.

There's an odd phenomenon where banks give more to those who make them money.

Same. I haven't paid a dime in credit card interest in more than 20 years.

I think the point is that way more than 4% of the population is living this way.

It's true. I didn't account for someone being house poor.

I know the credit card balances of zero people outside my home. So… maybe?

We all do. Our share of national debt is approaching $100,000 per person.
