B: Uh-huh
1,000
switchboard
A: but,
1,001
switchboard
B: Uh-huh,
1,002
switchboard
B: yeah,
1,003
switchboard
B: I I have, we have some, some friends that did the, exactly the same thing.
1,004
switchboard
B: They, uh, you know, they kind of overextended and borrowed and borrowed
1,005
switchboard
B: and finally they realized that they were, they were abusing them and weren't going to get out of the hole
1,006
switchboard
B: and they just cut them all up except for, for one they kept for emergencies
1,007
switchboard
B: and they're still paying away to get out of debt.
1,008
switchboard
A: Yeah.
1,009
switchboard
A: I know it.
1,010
switchboard
B: But, no,
1,011
switchboard
B: I did just the opposite.
1,012
switchboard
B: I, I guess I, I sort of followed in my, uh, parents' footsteps.
1,013
switchboard
B: I have quite a few of them.
1,014
switchboard
B: I use them continually,
1,015
switchboard
A: Uh-huh.
1,016
switchboard
B: but I, uh, I basically never charge anything I don't have the money in the bank to pay for.
1,017
switchboard
B: And, uh, and I always pay them off totally every month.
1,018
switchboard
A: Oh, is that right?
1,019
switchboard
B: Yeah.
1,020
switchboard
A: That's a, that's a good policy.
1,021
switchboard
B: Yeah,
1,022
switchboard
B: and it, you know, I mean, they, they're just a convenience for me.
1,023
switchboard
B: I don't have to get cash out of the bank,
1,024
switchboard
B: and I don't have to to be writing checks
1,025
switchboard
B: and and, uh,
1,026
switchboard
A: Yeah.
1,027
switchboard
A: Yeah,
1,028
switchboard
A: uh, sometimes I wish I had them,
1,029
switchboard
A: but in most cases, I'm glad I don't because I, you know, unfortunately I, I, I don't have the control you have
1,030
switchboard
B: Uh-huh.
1,031
switchboard
A: I wish I did,
1,032
switchboard
A: but but I don't.
1,033
switchboard
B: Yeah.
1,034
switchboard
A: Uh, and it, you know, it,
1,035
switchboard
A: I just don't want to get into that situation again,
1,036
switchboard
A: so we'll,
1,037
switchboard
B: Uh-huh.
1,038
switchboard
B: Yeah,
1,039
switchboard
B: I mean, it, it's easy,
1,040
switchboard
B: I mean, you don't have anything transferring, just a little signature,
1,041
switchboard
B: so what, you know
1,042
switchboard
A: Oh, that's it.
1,043
switchboard
A: See, and that's,
1,044
switchboard
A: even with my gas card you know, I find that I'll go in to get some gas
1,045
switchboard
B: Uh-huh.
1,046
switchboard
A: and I'll end up buying, you know, candy and drinks and you know, sweets and whatever,
1,047
switchboard
B: Right.
1,048
switchboard
A: and then at the end of the month I, you know, I get a bill
1,049
switchboard
A: and I'm thinking what did I get, that costs so much.
1,050
switchboard
B: Surprising.
1,051
switchboard
B: Yeah.
1,052
switchboard
A: And,
1,053
switchboard
B: Well, you know, but the,
1,054
switchboard
B: I mean, there are sort some inherent limits there,
1,055
switchboard
B: you're not going to, you're not going to run up a few thousand dollars for that,
1,056
switchboard
B: right.
1,057
switchboard
A: Yeah,
1,058
switchboard
A: that, that's true,
1,059
switchboard
A: but I can, I can certainly understand where
1,060
switchboard
B: Now I,
1,061
switchboard
A: You know,
1,062
switchboard
B: the thing that probably helps me most doing that is really, you know, uh, not so much discipline,
1,063
switchboard
B: I mean, well, I mean, you have sort of a discipline in general about finances,
1,064
switchboard
B: but, but I hate their, their rates so badly, I mean their interest rates so badly that I,
1,065
switchboard
A: Oh, yeah.
1,066
switchboard
A: Isn't it,
1,067
switchboard
A: that's unbelievable.
1,068
switchboard
A: How,
1,069
switchboard
A: let me ask you this.
1,070
switchboard
A: How, how old are you?
1,071
switchboard
B: I'm, uh, thirty-three.
1,072
switchboard
A: Thirty-three?
1,073
switchboard
B: Thirty-two,
1,074
switchboard
B: excuse me.
1,075
switchboard
A: Okay.
1,076
switchboard
A: You'll be thirty-three this year?
1,077
switchboard
B: Yeah.
1,078
switchboard
A: You want to be thirty-two as long as you can, huh.
1,079
switchboard
A: It's coming.
1,080
switchboard
B: Uh-huh.
1,081
switchboard
A: Yeah,
1,082
switchboard
A: I, I know what you mean about the interest rates. It's, uh, it's unbelievable.
1,083
switchboard
B: You know, I just, that just irritates me so much that, that I refuse to pay them interest
1,084
switchboard
B: and, and my wife recently, uh, decided she had to go to Brazil and was going to take off
1,085
switchboard
B: and, she's from there and and, uh, didn't really have the money,
1,086
switchboard
A: Uh-huh.
1,087
switchboard
B: but, you know, she could pay it off,
1,088
switchboard
B: and so I, sort of reluctantly let her put it on credit cards,
1,089
switchboard
B: but she's paying it,
1,090
switchboard
B: and, uh, I just won't do it.
1,091
switchboard
B: I mean, she's paying, I don't know, I don't know what per month, you know, forty, fifty dollars per month in interest
1,092
switchboard
A: Oh, jeez.
1,093
switchboard
B: and I just, you know, I just refuse to give it to them.
1,094
switchboard
B: If I need to borrow that kind of money, I'll go to the bank
1,095
switchboard
B: and, uh,
1,096
switchboard
A: Yeah,
1,097
switchboard
A: and then, you bet.
1,098
switchboard
B: You know.
