Default Credit Card Stupidity Doubled

What's worse than a credit card? A credit card that has a lottery/sweepstakes to pass out the cash you earn back. Gamble with a credit card. Makes no financial sense. Going to be a huge hit. Mark my words.

If you want a reward card, this is not the way to go about it.

Avoid credit cards all together. And tell your friends. They're coming up with evermore creative ways to take our money! What ever happened to cash? This could be bad.

There really is no reason to avoid credit cards unless you don't have the discipline to use them correctly. Now this particular credit card isn't the smartest choice in the world, but it doesn't mean to avoid all credit cards. It just means to be wise in your choices.
