The banks get free money and charge us high interest.
Credit cards are 20% for starters and as high as 35% for loans.
I recently changed out several credit cards that had high interest with 0% for 15 to 18 months.
I now owe no money for the past 2 months except what I buy at Amazon and it is paid off each month. My credit score should be perfect but after getting the new cards my score fell. https://credit.com says my score went down 39 points....
