Credit card for 'emergencies', HAH!
| Tue, 03-22-2005 - 1:53pm |
I love Jerrold Mundis' book 'How to get out of debt, stay out of debt, and live prosperously'. He talks about all kinds of ways to live without a credit card. One of the war-cries of those in denial is, "I need a credit card to rent a car". Well, no I don't!
The last time I rented a car a few months ago, they did a quick credit check on me, and held $250 from my debit card, which was credited when I returned the car.
This time, using the same car rental agency (Enterprise), I called ahead to tell her that I only have a debit card and not a credit card, and she said as long as I show a return itinerary, I can use a debit card.
Eureka!! I'm free of credit cards!!!!
