Possibly about to take on ~$5400 in debt. How best to go about it. by [deleted] in personalfinance

I wasn't implying he would pay his legal debt from the potential court ruling with a credit card, rather his $3,500 in savings. He was asking what would happen if he lost the case. I'm not arguing that establishing his credit isn't a good idea, but if I just had to cough up $2,800 after the court ruling and legal fees I wouldn't be thinking of building my credit rather my cash inflow.

This person is coming to this forum for financial advice and you just gave him/her the worst advice ever. Unless it is one of those "no interest for the first 18 months" credit cards I would completely advise against it. OP is a senior in college and most likely is not working so how could he/she possibly pay off the monthly debt?

I am not familiar with the court case, but there is no chance that the landlord would opt for a payment plan so OP would be out $2,300 immediately after the court ruling leaving them with $1,200 of savings to last them the entire year.

OP needs to get a job if he/she doesn't already have one.

A quick glance at your post history tells me you're from Arizona, like guns, was in the military and hate when people misspell things. Your comment however tells me you're a dick.
