Let's be honest about credit cards -- they are the avenue to so much information about us, and can be both a source of financial opportunity and financial danger. I mean, one need only consider the recent breaches of credit card security to realize that they can be the vehicle to so much of your personal information as to virtually strip you naked for the world to see, and to allow great financial mischief to be made in your life. On the other hand, many credit card issuers monitor for fraud and will contact you if they see strange transactions.

However, there are benefits to credit cards, in terms of finding an offer that will save you money by allowing 0% balance transfers or offering 0% interest credit cards. So if you do find credit card use to be necessary, it is a good thing to shop around for the best offers.
