We have a no credit policy at our house. I know that seems random, but hold on to that thought...
Our daughter has been saving for a puppy forever. At least it seams that way when you're ten years old. There was an add in the local paper for shih-tzu terrier mix puppies, so we went to look at them.
On a Sunday.
When the banks are closed.
It was love at first sight. The very nice man offered to let her take the puppy home and pay for him the next day (we live in a small community). I explained to Missy that would be a form of credit. She left the puppy with kisses and promises. And didn't pout, just cheerfully got things ready for him at home. Monday we picked him up.
I'm grateful that the Lord led us to Financial Peace University so we could learn to manage our money wisely and teach our children to while they are young, so they won't make the same mistakes we did.
