 TITLE: The Worst Credit Card Charges You Can Make CONTENT: A Round of Drinks for All Your \"Friends\"\n----------------------------------------\nEvery transaction you make with your credit card should be done when your cognitive skills are sharp. When they are, you can weigh whether or not what you charge is needed and within your means. But when you're a few drinks in, rational thought can drop precipitously. Suddenly you're instructing the bartender to add 20 shots of tequila to your card. You'll be everyone's best friend that night, but the next morning you'll wake up to an agonizing balance that can rival your hangover. Who were those people again?\nRemember, credit cards aren't toys; they're serious financial tools. Use them to your advantage by only charging when you're sure the purchases are a good idea, and when there will be enough cash in your checking account to cover the balance due. END
