I remember that.. it was the worst to get out of bed early in the morning and fly away from him every week, and dreading a delay on the way back... and now I don't have him - I'd definitely reconsider the job and how important the relationship is. I wish I had 😓

Do you pay your credit cards in full every month?

I ask because I’ve let my credit spending get a bit lax since moving and adopting a puppy recently, so I haven’t been paying them off in full every month like I used to (though still well above the minimum payment, and keeping utilization at 30% or under). It got me thinking about how many people adhere to this advice.
