I honestly have no idea whether buy now pay later is considered good or bad. The article is email-walled so I don’t know.

I was fiscally responsible and didn’t buy things on credit. I had a low credit score.

Now I deliberately pat for things on credit then pay them off immediately to have a high credit score.

Maybe we could replace credit score with an actual measure of financial responsibility?
