How to properly do Revolving Credit

If you are living paycheck to paycheck getting a credit card is not the worst thing possible, especially if you have a landlord who accepts Credit Cards, usually applying for the Reward bonuses will actually make you money back.

Example

Apartment $500 Per Mo. x 12 mos = 6,000 = 60 dollars in cash rewards back (For most rewards it's at least 1% cash back, some may be higher.) To sign up for reward bonuses is usually only 19.95 so you end up doing better than what you started with regardless.

Setting your rent up on revolving credit, your cable bill, your phone bill, your other bills to do this will help you to build revolving credit, which will slowly but surely raise your credit score every month. Just remember to pay off the balances as soon as possible in order to avoid finance charges.
