Do you actually need credit to buy things? (lemmy.world)

Hey, I was wondering if someone needs credit to buy things. People in my family have said I wouldn't be able to buy a car or a house without credit. But if I'm saving up cash to pay for things outright, do I really need credit?

Note: I’m sorry if this is the wrong place to ask.

I find it perplexing that some perceive what I share as disconnected from reality. Everything I post reflects my current life experiences, including my personal growth and related developments. My medical team is aware of these experiences, and they are corroborated by others who have witnessed them.

Regarding the capacity to love, it is a frequent topic of discussion. Why should there be a limit to the number of people one can love or care for? The idea of restricting this capacity to just two or four people seems arbitrary and unnecessary.

I have consulted both a psychiatrist and a therapist. Both professionals have confirmed that my experiences and thought processes differ significantly from those associated with psychological breaks or schizophrenia, contrary to some family members' concerns.

Not gonna answer this, could easily pick out the lies in this comment just from comparing to your post history, I think I understand fully now why involuntary commitment exists.

“It's fascinating how you suggest that comparing my comment to my post history would effortlessly reveal any inaccuracies. It seems you’re making quite a statement but holding back on the specifics. If you’re as insightful as you claim, why not share your findings with the rest of us?”

“You seem to have a few points in mind. Now something you may say. While I’m currently in no position to consult professionals due to finances, that doesn’t mean I haven’t done so in the past. What else can you come up with? Please, enlighten us, ‘genius.’”
