He "owes between $10,000 and $100,000", and the headline makes it "tens of thousands", when it could be $10,001?

I recently re-did my kitchen. I took advantage of a credit card offer of 12 months of 0% interest on purchases made in the first month, and put $10K of my expenses on that card. It will be paid off by the end of the 12 months, and I will have paid no interest.

I’m just saying, this link may be right, this link may have incorrect information.

But according to that link, well just see for yourself.

My point is, all the candidates in the GOP need to stop trying to find something to tear down Donald Trump, and start saying what they are going to do themselves, to make America turn back around and grow once again.

Jobs, in America. And stop bringing in so many illegals.

Those are ideas Trump stood up for right away, and they are very important.

Maybe those ideas, are the reason Trump has caught on so strongly.

Just saying.

I do the same thing. If 0 percent is offered I use their money and make sure it’s paid off.
I have one working now that $3k is left on and am in the process of another that will have $8k on it.
They’ll both be paid off so we don’t spend 1 cent on interest.

I was thinking the same thing.

I've made several large purchases using 12 or even 24 months with zero interest. I got to keep my money and earn a little bit of return in my money market account.

About fifteen years ago I bought a car to get the airline miles; went to the bank, got a car loan and paid of the credit card.

The financial disclosures of politicians are based on the balance on cards as of the day it was filled out. I always owe something on a credit card, even though it's paid when the bill comes.
