Erma Bombeck, the late humorist, summed up family relationships when she spoke of “the ties that bind ... and gag!” That just makes me laugh because it is such a colorful word picture. Maybe you’ve thought this from time to time: “Family—can’t live with ‘em, and can’t live without ’em!”
The same thing could be said about credit cards in these very strange times in which we live. Many people can’t live with them but can’t live without them, either.
