Using Credit: Benefits

There are many benefits to using credit:

Credit enables you to purchase big-ticket items like a home, or a car - things you might never be able to afford if you had to pay cash for them.

Credit can also help you finance your child's college education, remodel your home, pay for an unexpected emergency, take a vacation, and so on.
