Of course I don't know what those people meant (maybe they meant a HELOC?
Or was this back when any loan interest was tax-deductible?), but I was taught that you should keep a good credit rating, so you could get a loan whenever you needed one.

When I was a kid I remember people saying "Yes, but it's a good thing to always have a loan; you should always have a loan out there", like it was a good financial plan or something. I think the idea was that it built up good credit...so you could get another loan.
Or something equally idiotic.
