You're just a bitch.
You soften the standard of living disparity by getting more credit cards? This is the stupidest thing I've ever heard and it always will be when someone tells me they get a credit card for literally any reasons besides building credit or necessary purchases before your paycheck comes in.
If you get multiple credit cards to better your standard of living, you hurt it, every time, severely.
If you spend an extra $5000 in a year on a credit card that has about 20% interest, that's now over $1000 a year you have less because you are paying interest.
Then you make the same amount of money, give $1000 to credit card companies, and have no credit left because it's maxed. Except you didn't even pay the credit card company because they sold your debt to collectors.
This way of living will leave you with no money, no credit, collectors that will never give up bothering you, and eventually if you ever find a way to own anything, collectors will come for that too.
Oh and then you run back to your ex that cheated on you, as if that the man who cheated is better than a man that at least made an effort to help your problem.
