Article on Credit Cards

Independent_on_Sunday

Hello, my name is Helen McCormack and I am a journalist from the Independent on Sunday.

I am researching an article on peoples' changing attitudes towards debt and how well-managed debt can be be a positive thing.

I have spoken to Martin Lewis who has given me permission to post this thread, and has himself allowed me to interview him for the article.

I would very much appreciate it if anyone could spare the time to talk with me about their experiences in holding credit cards, anonymously or otherwise.

As Martin told me, it is important to get the word out there that peoples' experience's of debt need not be negative.

You can either email me at sundaynews@independent.co.uk, or telephone me on 07813 137473.

Yours sincerely

Helen McCormack

Theres nothing that beats STOOZED debt, I use it up the return on capital / savings.

I.e. if I have £100k cash saved and £50k stoozed then the return on the £100k is thus boosted by the £50k from say 5% to 7.5% ! Now that's what I call using debt to your advantage !

Call me paranoid, but yeh, I want to remain annonymous, rather than lose lucrative earnings from being blacklisted by CC companies.

Unnecessary punctuation in 'experiences'.

*Wonder if I could get a job as a journalist*
