When a debtor owes a debt like a credit card charge, paying the amount on time every month:
- reduces the principal balance
- which over time also reduces the interest on what is left
- and gives the debtor an excellent credit rating (for that bill only)
It also gives "room" on the card for you to make another purchase.
