Using a debit card in 2026:
❌ Zero rewards
❌ Direct risk to your main bank account on data breaches
❌ Does 0 building for your credit score
Using a credit card responsibly:
✅ 2%–5% cashback on everyday spending
✅ Zero fraud liability (bank's money is on the line)
✅ Unlocks lower interest rates on future mortgages
#FED
@DeItaone Fed hikes to 3.75%, Trump wants 1%, and consumer credit card APRs are pushing 24%.
The real arbitrage here is paying off variable card balances in full every month and taking the free rewards. 💳🔥
The Fed raised rates to 3.75%–4.00%, which means variable credit APRs just got more expensive.
This is exactly why you use credit cards strictly for the perks, fraud protection, and cashback—never to finance debt you can't pay off immediately. Treat it like a debit card and profit off the rewards.
@federalreserve Rate hikes only hurt if you carry a credit card balance.
Pay off your card in full every 30 days, dodge the 24% APR entirely, and keep racking up free points and cashback. 📈💳
@Polymarket Using defense-grade AI to track lettuce safety, yet my credit card still flags a $12 Chipotle bowl as suspicious activity when I travel 2 towns over. 💳😭

Ahead of Wednesday’s high-stakes Federal Reserve policy decision, Donald Trump urged the Fed to drop U.S. borrowing costs below any other nation's, arguing that America's unmatched creditworthiness warrants the world's lowest interest rates regardless of standard central bank formulas. When asked if he anticipates a rate hike, Trump noted he was unsure, but insisted the country's economic strength should guarantee vastly lower rates.
