I agree with this mostly but if you can't manage credit card debt than how can you expect to save cash to purchase a large item? My opinion is if you can save a large sum of cash then why couldn't you manage available credit on your credit cards?
Another note is you need credit to purchase a home, especially in the Bay Area. So, stay away from Dave Ramsey books if you plan on buying a home in the Bay Area and you only get paid 30 bucks an hour because it's never gonna happen. Get those credit cards, play the 10% balance game for a few years and get that available credit up and maintain a good debt to income ratio to get that huge loan for your own home and once that is done start doing the Dave Ramsey thing. Or live is squalor for 10 years and buy your dream home with cash.
