So I'm reading the book now, but I am getting conflicting messages from it about using credit. I'm not that far along in the book, but I remember MJ saying he basically lived off his credit cards when he moved to AZ. A few chapters later, the message I get is don't ever use credit, pay cash for everything. So my question then is when you are 1st starting out building your business, when do you use credit? Or is there even a time at all to use credit?
