The term ‘credit card’ simply means ‘issuer lending money to the consumer’. A credit card company allows the consumer to ‘revolve’ their balance, at the cost of having interest charged. I had 2 credit cards before but threw them away because I realized that it has no value to me. To me, is more con than pro. Anyways, I’ve listed the pros and cons of a credit card and how it affects the general public.

Pros

Extremely Convenient

It is small and easy to use. All you need to do is just hand it over to the cashier, check the amount credited and sign.

Safer than carrying around a lot of cash.

If you ever get robbed, all you need to do is just dial your credit card company and block your credit card. That’s it!

An extra source of money in emergency situations.

Since I stopped using my credit cards, I had difficulties during days when I forgot that I had little cash in my wallet. It happened once when I went out on a date and had to ask her to pay for me first. It was super embarrassing!

A means of building up your credit record which may eventually help you in purchasing a home, car. etc.

Some credit cards do help you in purchasing assets.

Accepted at most businesses in many countries worldwide.

Generally, every consumer oriented business will surely use credit cards. Example ; Hotels, Restaurants, Shopping Malls, Gas Stations, Supermarkets and etc.

Cons

Extremely Convenient

This point is also a con as you may charge too much and may not afford to pay up in time.

I signed up for the free plan and I thought about what I could back up with 2GB. Then I realized that I could keep copies of my pictures and mp3s. I checked and the total size read 1.65GB. Immediately, I scheduled backups for the 2 folders and when a need for a larger backup arises, I could always opt for the UNLIMITED storage plan priced at just $4.95/month.
