people think they're smart to not use credit cards and only pay cash but it actually just demonstrates their lack of self-control and personal responsibility. it suggests the crippling, denied, repressed awareness that they would ruin their lives if extended a line of credit larger than their monthly income.

The woke are unironically more obsessed with morality then you are. It's why they are woke. Jihadists are the most moral people on the planet.

Piss on morals. Moral people can't mentally model the immoral. The right started winning the moment it abandoned and the left embraced puritanism. Fuck that shit. If it works, it works and might makes right. Only a retard would advocate any different.

no they're not, it's a service, it's priced based on the time value of money, and if you pay it before due that price is actually negative, ie they pay you to use money by offering % cash back on most purchases.
just think about it. when you borrow money, you have to pay interest because you're compensating the lender for taking on the risk of parting with their money for a period of time.
with a credit card, the lender takes on the risk to loan you the amount you spend - the lender is a payment processor/bank who makes money on the transaction itsself - and if you pay them back on time, they actually cut you in on that profit by returning some of the money you spent back to you. because the time value of money is so much greater than its present value that there's actually more money left over than what you spent originally.

Buying gas with credit cards is just more functional. I don't want to have to guess how much gas I intend to put in my tank and provide enough cash to pay for it up front. Using a card just charges me exactly what I filled my tank up with and I never need to go into the store. If you use cash you have to go inside, ask to fill up your tank with as much cash as you have on hand, go back out and fill up your tank, then go back inside and get refunded the difference.

Underage faggots ITT saying "nothing of value was lost" don't understand precedent. If armed troopers broke into your house and stole your trash, would you shrug it off because you only lost trash or would you be pissed off at the idea that armed troopers can break into your house with impunity?

It's insane how the same niggas who think that illegal immigrants Muslims would invade and force sharia law think it's ok for the government to enforce penis inspection on my cock by forcing my to take a picture of it next to my state ID just to make sure I'm not a minor or something. All just to see nearly the same amount of tits and ass that a 13 year old can find on twitch without an account, and without having their fucking ID in a database ready for breaching

Nothing is stopping you from paying with cash by shipping it to the devs or doing a direct transfer.
VISA and Mastercard just makes it easier to pay, so you are just using their services. If you don't like it, then don't use it, or make your own payment method.

You cannot force companies to do as you will. Payment processors don't want to support something, then they don't. Storefronts don't want to sell specific products, then they don't.
Should we force your store to sell specific stuff you don't want to?

The best thing that happened to my credit was going into $11k of credit card debt, paying it all off with a personal loan from my bank and then paying them off over 2 years. Credit shot from the mid 600s to high 700s. The main thing is never missing payments. Don't recommend, but it's an idea. That pc is probably long overdue for an upgrade, right anon? :^)

I keep getting warned that debit cards offer less fraud protection but I don't necessarily believe it.

Using a credit card gets me cash back and provides me a good week-to-week spend tracker since I don't ever carry balances on them for long periods of time (minus any big-ticket purchases).

We have debit, but the banks usually stop issuing them when you graduate to a credit card unless you specifically ask to still receive one. You usually need to go to a physical bank as well, no online application.
Debit cards are kind of superfluous once you have a credit card anyways, visa and mastercard are the main processors for both.

They're just the biggest payment processors out there. There are tons of others. But using them for international trade usually requires them to go through some JewSA verification system. And even if you ignore that and someone somehow comes up with a new global payment system, no vendor will want to drop Visa and Mastercard simply because you have a gorillion people using them. Slightly inconveniencing them means line doesn't go up. That's bad.

I actually make a little money using my CC. I earn points just by buying things with it that balances out to put me in the black. It costs less for me to use a CC than cash.
I'm never "in debt" any more than I am for any other monthly bill like water or electricity. I pay my bill and that's it.

Censorship needs to be imposed, and only those who have power over others can impose things. Therefore, censorship allows those who have power over you to control what kind of information you can and cannot access. Your only option, in this case, is to hope that the censor is benevolent towards you.
In other words, if you don't care about censorship, you are a submissive cuckold who doesn't mind leaving your decisions in the hands of those above you.

you can deactivate debit cards very easily
also you can just get a new one because the debit card is just a way to pay with your bank account's money, you don't lose the money if you lose the debit card since the account still is intact, only way you lose money is that the debit card gets stolen and instead of immediately deactivating it you just let the guy that stole it use it

Visa and MC see first-world countries as worth investing into because those people have significant income and can be expected to pay their bills. The guys mining sulfur in Indonesia take cash from their boss and then spend it immediately on things like food, alcohol and gambling. They do not have savings. They have no need for a credit card. All a credit card in the 3rd world amounts to is "ooh, free money". Because what is visa going to do to get their money back? Take his flip flops and empty beer cans?

Ideally JCB would start doing cards worldwide again instead of just for Asia, or a new company from Japan that doesn't give a fuck.

but if the intermediary is responsible for securing the transaction, then things of interest to the intermediary are of interest to the transactors by default, because if it is no longer safe for the intermediary to operate they won't be able to transact anymore. so you're imagining someone to defend a case that's logically impossible. and then you're imagining that person getting raped.

Yes, you will always be dependent on the decisions of others when you're making exchanges with an intermediary. But there are nuances.
For example, if the intermediary is an authoritarian or fundamentalist government, it would probably be worse than Visa and Mastercard, since transaction blocks would become basically arbitrary and unpredictable.
A more open government would probably be less bad, since it couldn't block any kind of legal transaction. Keep in mind that Mastercard can block anything it sees as harmful to its business and interests. So, let's say you have a company that is offering a service that has the potential to free people from Mastercard. This company can simply blacklist you and force you to be left with basically no monetization options. It doesn't matter if what you were doing was legal, Mastercard no longer wants to work with you, and you are basically left with no viable options.
An open and democratic government could not, in theory, do something like that. But we know that utopia does not exist. A system operated by the US government, for example, would 100% certainly block some transactions considered "anti-Semitic", for example...

because of counterparty risk. when you use a payment processor to transact with another party, you're using a service that insulates you from the need to carry 100s/1000s of dollars on your person, exposing you to risk (robbery, etc). the payment processor can circumvent this by crediting the vendor while your tender is still in your bank. that credit, represents the same risk you're avoiding, now born by the processor: if your bank goes under before these transactions clear, the processor is on the hook for the value of the transaction - it would be a cost to their business above their normal expenses, just like how a robbery would be a cost to you above your normal living expenses. businesses whose services you want have a right to defend their operation against such costs just like you have a right to defend yourself from robbery, by using credit cards.

Well it is less secure, because if someone steals your debit card information and purchases 10k of shit, that is money out of the bank and the burden of proof falls on the bank and customer that there was fraud. When using a credit card, the burden of proof falls to the vendor to prove there wasn't fraud

That's not necessarily correct, in fact crypto was created precisely to change this paradigm. There are multiple potential issues with it but nowadays you can't just say that there are no viable ways of doing currency transactions without an intermediary.

Doesn't really help if they've got their grasp on an entire platform, though. Valve bent the knee, which means they're on board with the changes. It's not like other sites that have simply dropped Visa/Mastercard/Paypal and you can still just bypass that by using digital currency or vouchers or whatever.

Depends on the bank and the ATM. Here, banks that have their own ATMs only charge you for using other banks' ATMs. My bank doesn't have ATMs, but they only charge you if you take out less than like $75.

Europe does have its own payment infrastructure and services but they're mostly focused on debit payments and direct money transfer. Not on credit, like in the US. Traditionally these are limited to national borders, but that's changing: https://epicompany.eu/

There's a simple solution to this called "having self control" and "not spending money you don't have".

Did you know you could leverage other peoples money to make yourself money? I know this might sound foriegn to someone so illiterate about finance. Lets say you want to start a business mowing lawns. Its going to cost you a truck, lawn equipment, labor and misc expenses. 5k for the truck 2k for equipment, 1k a month for labor and 300 for misc expenses. So youll need 7k upfront and 1.3k recurring a month to be viable. Now lets say you only have 4k in your bank account and you manage to save 250 a month. So you can go your route and shun crdit and banks and all that shit and wait over a year to save up enough money to start your business, or you can use a bank and credit to start your business now which can generate you cash the first month. As long as you meet your 1.3k plus whatever it costs you to borrow the extra 3k youll be a year ahead of your previous plan.

You think credit cards are only used to buy new sneakers or shitty TVs and yes if you think/live like a nigger then youll be treated like one. But if you can actually rub a few braincells together you can suddenly use all these wonderful tools our society has to your benefit.

>credit cards do not serve a useful purpose.
Yes they do you massive retard, they're a middle man for protection between you and the seller and vice versa. There is always a scamming faggot out in the world, using a credit card (for non retarded purposes). Do you really want to send hard money that can be stolen through mail when you want to do online purchases, or send a check that could be used and forge without you being able to do anything, or risk your bank account info to do an EFT? Worse case is someone scams you up to the credit card limit and they deny a charge back, which is infinitely better than them draining your bank account. I'm all for carrying cash and being able to use it in any case that you see fit, and in a perfect society you'd be able to do that, but we don't live in one and in cases like getting a hotel room and getting a rental car, it makes 100x more sense to use a credit card. The credit score system is fucked, but you might as well use it to your advantage. The difference between using a credit card responsibility and getting a score of over 750 could or not could be the difference of getting a 6.7% interest rate on a $400,000 or a 7.7% rate. Do you know how much that saves you on a 30 year loan? Almost $250,000, just for doing something simple like putting groceries on your card every month and then paying it off the day after it posts to your account

They control all forms of payment, because they tell banks that banks won't be able to interface with their systems if they don't follow the same rules.
If Master Card doesn't like you, your bank will close your account. Because you are less important to you than credit cards.
