I agree with this suggetion. You don't have to have a mortgage payment to have a good credit rating. I paid off my house in 2001. I use a credit card for everything I can, because they pay me 1 1/2 to 4 1/2% back. I do pay the balance off when the bill comes each month. I have never paid any interest on a credit card. I only purchase a new vehicle when I have the cash to pay for it. My credit score is 950.
