Co-sign a loan for my business.
The business is a historical reenactment of being an African American slave in early America where guests pick cotton and run from their whip-yielding master.
I think it will be a success.

Take out a loan and put it into stocks. If your rate of return is better than the interest rate the bank is just donating money to you.

This is how we know you're lying. The only way your credit is amazing is if you've been taking out lots of loans.

That assumes I have a good feel for what to throw my money at.

It's not a bad idea, per se, but I would definitely want to learn the ropes with my own liquid cash first before attempting it.

Active credit card user + almost never carrying any debt month-to-month = stellar track record for trustworthy borrower, no?

I used to think that too. Later on, having a strong credit score actually helped me get a large unsecured loan, which I used to invest (BTC/ETH). After that I was able to secure low-interest financing for a car and home.

It’s not perfect, but a good credit score can open doors if you use it carefully.

It’s not really a loan if you pay it off immediately, plus you get cash back
t. high credit score from revolving credit

>It’s not really a loan if you pay it off immediately
It is, actually. It really doesn't matter if you think of it as a loan or not, it matters what the bank thinks it is, and they're pretty certain that as soon as the bank hands you the money, it's a loan. And you aren't even paying it "immediately", you're paying it back at the end of the month. Most loans on the market are even shorter than that (e.g. interbank overnight loans) and that doesn't somehow transmogrify them into non-loans. If you've never heard of interbank overnight loans it was their interest rate - the IOR (Inter-Bank Overnight Rate) - going negative that triggered the 2008 financial crisis.

and if it isnt, then you are just stuck with a losing position while constantly bleeding money thanks to the interest rate

You can buy VOO or SSO on the stock market if you don't have any better ideas of what to do with the money.

You can tell who has never taken a loan out before. They will find out what the money is being used for, and you will pay large interest for speculative garbage.

Cool that's fraud! Keep dealing in the real world goyim.

Only loan I ever took out besides my student loans (which are paid off with my mother's inheritance) was my car loan, and I paid that off in less than two years on a five year loan.
