Same account all this time. About 7 years ago, I went through really hard times, missed One payment. They doubled my monthly payment. When I was flush with money, I paid off monthly. But, you need a credit card to do anything. You can't even rent a hotel room for an appointment at OHSU in Portland, without a credit card.

These credit card companies are vultures. How does trump think this is going to work?
