    It can be. Depending on the circumstances in life you are in, credit may be the only way you’re able to pay for food.

      You can’t do that forever though. Eventually you’ll run out of credit and have to pay for it yourself. And by that point you’re probably getting crushed by the debt from a maxed out card, that you’d have been better off not using in the first place.

        Correct. But it’s either this or literally starve. That’s why you’ve got people here saying it isn’t really a choice.
