I got my first credit card about 6 months ago. I had to file bankruptcy years ago due to an ex trying to ruin me financially. I got it to help rebuild my credit, and to help keep my business expenses in order for accounting purposes.

I need to pay some bills online. The most convenient for me to do that is thru credit card payment. I only use one credit card with a minimum credit limit. This is one way for me to avoid unnecessary spending.

I got mine to make accounting for business expenses easy, I put everything on the card.

I always pay off the card in full, the interest rates are madness

To build credit for the future. Plus I Can generate points by using my card, and if I pay on time, theres no loss to using a credit card as a consumer. Bet businesses hate it, because they end up with the 2% charge.
