It'll take 7 years for everything to drop off, and very few people are better off with a 'no credit history' rating. If you think you ever might want to get a mortgage, take out a loan to go back to school, pass a background check, get lower insurance rates, or waive utility deposits, you might want to develop a slightly more nuanced view of credit. The demonization of all debt is a bad lesson to take away from Dave Ramsey. Debt is a tool. It has the potential for misuse, but it can be a very useful tool to have access to.
