4. A large purchase that will wipe out your available credit

If you know that a certain purchase can get you closer to receiving a sign-up bonus, doing so might be tempting, but most financial experts advise us to only do this when we are sure we can pay off the balance. Because if a large transaction on your credit report goes unpaid, you will not only be charged interest, but you may also lose your credit limit. Be careful because your credit score is heavily influenced by your credit usage rate, and if one or more of your credit cards are fully utilized, you will experience a decline in your score until those amounts are paid off.

    Better yet, find a way to get on Medicaid. After 40 years of paying for private health insurance to a variety of companies I scammed my way onto Medicaid. Best insurance I ever had. Competent providers and no copays or any out-of-pocket. Thank you taxpayers!

      Scamming Medicaid is a serious crime of fraud. I hope you get caught and pay dearly and/or spend some time in prison. Encouraging others to find a way to get on Medicaid is morally reprehensible. Mark my words, sooner or later you WILL get caught. I wouldn’t want to be you when you do.

      Dear Jay,
      I hope you don’t end up in a nursing home, because Medicaid will take all your money and your home! That’s why I will never get it!
      I’m surprised you admitted online that you are an
      unscrupulous liar, along with being a law breaker! I hope it doesn’t catch up to you, but remember you reap what you sow!

    Pay all your credit card bills each month. If you do you get a free 30 day loan. If not you pay massive interest. Never keep a balance. If you need money get a loan from a credit union. Don’t do cash advances.
