Have you ever paid for a brake job with a credit card?
If so, what the hell is wrong with you?

The prudent thing is to freeze your spending.

Ride around with bad brakes.

What's the worst that could happen?

7. Thanks, taterguy!
:patriot:

Just for that, I think I'll pay for my groceries and gasoline with a credit card, then not pay them either!

Being patriotic is a lot easier than I thought!

9. If you can't afford food, wait until your next paycheck to eat
It's the responsible thing to do

11. You should write a diet book!
:rofl:

I think your theory would work far better than the diet spoon even!

12. The market is saturated with diet books
The only for it to be noticed would be to spend a bunch of money on advertising and I don't have that much cash.
