Learning the ranks

Rank 1

The rule

Never carry a credit card balance for a want. Pay in full, on time, automatically; card interest is an emergency tax.

Rank 2

Know your two numbers

Before signing any loan, know the interest rate and the total cost with interest. A credit score is mostly: pay on time, use little of your limits, wait.

Rank 3

Credit as a tool

Use credit deliberately: a rewards card you actually redeem, and debt only for things that outlive the loan (a home, sometimes a car, rarely anything else). Every tap pays the life cost.
