Good luck. If you think borrowing from a credit card to invest in the market is a good idea, good luck to you. It’s terrible financial advice to go high risk short term and potentially lose your $ and then get hit with high interest. Past performance doesn’t mean that’s ever a good idea. Gambling and high risk investments should be money you can afford to lose and not money borrowed. Good luck to ya if you think that in the one small case scenario it’s a good idea. Long term it’s A terrible strategy.

Not necessarily. If you can invest in something - e.g. vaccine companies whose value would go through the roof in a short time - you aren't interested in getting the relative "chump change" of credit card "points, rewards or whatever."

If you didn't have cash available at the time of the investment opportunity, but would have it available later when the CC 0% offer expired, then paying a high interest rate would not be an issue.

There were plenty of no brainer investment opportunities since late 2019.

Not all credit card purchases are the same. Can’t buy stocks everywhere on a credit card, only a few and usually a fee for it. Getting cash wouldn’t qualify as a no interest rate, it would be either a cash advance or a balance transfer and both have a fee and/or charge to do so. If all purchases were the same people would pay their mortgage on their credit card. It’s terrible advice to borrow money for short term high risk investments. You can find a scenario where it wins, it’s not a good or smart strategy. No financial advisor would recommend you do it.

Read your link, it proves my point. All credit cards have fine print, look at it.

He's good at that, have to admit. He does proves his adversaries arguments more than he does his own

Something to do with comprehensive 101 I suppose

there is no chance someone with a net worth above 2 million would have credit card debt. None.

Many people far richer than that have CC debt they pay off on a regular monthly (or weekly, etc) basis.

I don’t care the scenario it would be stupid and if you have a credit card you can’t pay off you aren’t a millionaire.

Where did the OP ever say he had CC debt he can't pay off?

For the below average intelligence (= dumb) person. Not for smart people.

Been there, done that. Win win.

implied it. If it’s paid of monthly then just count your cable bill as a debt too.
In post 51 he backs off it and says because of significant growth he paid off all debt, so we are to assume his 1.1 million portfolio is up enough this year to pay off his 732k debt he had just a few months ago. Cmon
man.

Cable bill? Too insignificant to even be worthy of mention.

man.

Actually in post 51 he says his CC debts continue, but are paid off regularly.

His post 51 also referred to AMC which, if it refers to the following, has multiplied it's value a number of times in its recent performance:

https://www.google.com/search?q=amc...i57j0i271l3.1998j0j4&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

We are not informed in post 51 what his monthly employment earnings have been in recent months.

Therein he also states that he no longer needs to "hold any kind of debt" (except CC) , but we are not told why that is the case. Although he says his mortgage (645K at the time of the OP) "is fully paid now thanks to AMC".

This is going in circles. Debating 7 different things trying to explain why credit card debt is bad. Whether he had it or not I don’t care. His post #1 was bullshit. Everyone called him on it.

It's possible, as his post #14 might suggest the OP was a ruse just to get a reaction. OTOH i don't think it's a "lock" that it's always true that "credit card debt is bad" or loan debt in general.

What's BS about it? If he had, for example, a 10K debt on his CC (or multiple CC's) due to recent purchases, he has to (i.e. he should) include that in his debts. Therefore he included unpaid CC debt in his list of debts. Just as he should have done. Would you prefer he lie and leave out that debt from his debt list?

See above.

Couple things on this. Firstly I have $100K or $200K in CC balances at any given time (mostly Amex centurion) but I have not paid a cent in interest or fees (other than annual fees) in probably 20 years. So yeah, I included that amount. But in actual fact the other figures were a joke (like I'm going to post any personal financial details on a degenerate forum like this lmfao) and based on this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n6rR9Ugv9gI . I naively thought someone on here would pick up on that,....silly me ##)

My actual TNW would shock you. Let's just leave it at that. Toodles

Over $ 700,000 in personal loans and credit card debt, has not paid one penny in interest in over 20 years (I'm giving him the benefit of a doubt and assuming he's trying to talk about consumer debt, so I'll ignore the interest on his mortgage he says is greater than $ 600,000

And he pays off $ 100,000 to $ 200,000 in credit card debt every month. That's an awful lot of spending, eh? There is one plausible explanation for this, but I'll let Mr Has Nothing to Bet figure this out.

PS: Consumer debt and personal assets don't reconcile, unless he has massive gambling debt or supplies cocaine to an entire city block in some poor urban area.

That's the beauty of lying liberals, they eventually talk too much and expose themselves
