Jafo pointed out that I also udes "it's" instead of "its" and ended the sentence incorectly (with a preposition)

Okay, say any of you are above 18, and you care about your finances.  I know, big words!

Then you browse on the wrong browser, to have someone steal your identity.  Now it's hard to get a credit card, take out loans, or even get a job.

I know, you're living off mommy's salary, but one day things will change.  If you get your identity stolen you may as well get hit by a car.

 So yes, if someone was to make decisions to use OS's with bad leaks, and then do stuff like online banking, it WILL lead to very bad situations.

You won't change, Zubaz...no matter how much he tries

Yeah I came out harshly, but sometimes the truth needs to be heard.  You don't like being insulted?  Fine.  I won't.  But if you do any form of bill paying, online banking, or even buying online, your identity is in threat.  Use a browser or an os with holes, your putting your entire life in danger.

Bad credit can mean:

Can't get new cars
Can't buy the house you wanted
Can't get the job you wanted
Can't get loans with resonable rates
Can't get good cc's with good rates
Can't get electronics with a down payment, need the money on hand.

Pretty much everything that's good will be taken.

And yes, I know at least 30% of you are over 18...

Sorry for my sarcastic attitude today.  I've been dealing alot with troublemaker kids lately.  But yes, I meant this is the way of credit.

You should also never give you credit card to a stranger.

Oh . . wait . . like that waiter.  Or that cashier?
Your message is fine (if an opinion and extreme); but your method offsets much of the benefit you are trying to pass along A bit extreme, no?  Bordering on cRaZy. 

As to bad credit and the things you list.  All can be purchased . . just use money you have, not money you have borrowed.

What teh hell?

Again, sorry.  I do tend to hold alot in, and I guess sometimes it's easier to yell at people you don't know then do something that will be VERY BAD.

But I guess you guys don't like it when I do this either eh.  Maybe I'll get a punching bad.  Or play TF2 when I'm like this.

Well yes, most things can be purchased, but when it comes to a house or a car, if you don't have good credit today, you'll be spending all your money on gas and living in your parents basement.

AT THE VERY LEAST you need good credit to buy those two.

Thinking like this is bad for America.  It saddens me.

ZubaZ won't go any further off topic though . . count your blessing

I use IE

a) I'm 39
I have an A+ Credit rating
c) I have never gotten malware solely due to my choice of browser ( last time was downloading a Trillian skin on customize.org a couple years back )
d) have lived on my own for 18 years

Care to enlighten me on the consequences of my choice of browser again?

Well I suppose if you have $200,000 laying around you don't need credit for a house...

And it depends on what IE you have.  The question more or less lies in responsibility.  Yes, you can get by with an os with holes, but one without makes it alot easier.

And you can get viruses while using good os's, just like you can get hit by a car without being on an interstate.

But using a fully patched browser is the best thing you can do, esp if you do anything online with your money.
