This week's one-word prompt
comes from Deana who linked up in our Meet Your Fellow Trifectans tab (if you
haven't done so yet, hop to it) and suggested this gem:
JUGGLE (transitive verb)
3: to handle or
deal with usually several things (as obligations) at one time so as to satisfy
often competing requirements <juggle the responsibilities of family life and
full-time job — Jane S. Gould>

Oh wow, this is really interesting. I'd love to know more.
ReplyDeleteCredit used to work as such when there was an abundance of credit. It was to easy qualify and there were not any computers at the stores to check if you were over your limit. The retailer had to make a phone call if they were suspicious. Christmas was truly Christmas because it was impossible to verify anyone.
DeleteIn the event you can not pay your credit card debt, because it is an unsecured debt, it is only reported to the 3 credit agencies, and is written off.
Suddenly, you had to pay for most things with cash or check. Now, you can choose a debit card in place of a credit card, and funds will be transferred out of your checking account, same as cash.
Because of no credit card debt, you have much more cash to work with, but you have to live within your means.
After the statuette of limitations expires your credit report is cleared like the year of Jubilee. In the past you would be courted by credit card companies to apply for credit. Once again you could have multiple credit cards.

ReplyDeleteYou are certainly a breath of fresh air, that is for sure! I am smiling after reading this. I love your Voice.
ReplyDeleteLife is about juggling, I think. If we're lucky we don't drop all the balls at once!
ReplyDeleteWell, I often have to drop all the balls at once but that is no problem for me. I just get some more balls. Life is about balls.
DeleteReads like a jazzy spoken piece. Love the word play.
ReplyDeleteNagging doubt: is the Oops Opps a typo or is Opps for opportunities?
oops (ps)

Wow!I agree & its like that now over here(India)-we are continuously living on credit forgetting that this is a trap-such is life!Wonderfully written:-)
ReplyDeleteThank you, but here in the US credit cards was free money for those that knew how to use them. Even Hillary and Obama used other people’s credit cards to finance their Presidential campaigns to the tune of multi-millions of dollars that they did not have to pay back. It was reported on the news.
Deleteliving within one's cash means could surely help expend a great deal less energy, huh? well expressed.
