So I guess back then zero credit was good credit as they didn't make squat were under 19 and lived at home...
Like I said I think that was the beginning of the abuse of credit that has gotten us to the overspending living beyond your means we have now
Credit is great!
Me and the wife use our Amazon card on everything and pay it off to zero each month..
Mortgage paid, both cars paid..
We have always lived under our means...probably as we started with nothing when we were 19 and 18 back in 78
She has balanced the checkbook to the penny every month since..yes I am blessed!

was only replying that cards were hard to get.
I was lucky, I started with 400 limit. a few months not sure how long, I received 1 in the mail. never applied for it I was 20, soon had 4 or 5 that came in the mail. since I hardly used them I didn't mind.
my first major purchase was paying a tow truck from Indio to Los Angeles. still remember 250 bucks.
anyway the laws were changed sometime late 80s. you could not send an unsolicited credit card anymore.
