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 might be renting a house soon, but my family has been making me really nervous about it, which is what they do. The rent is $2.4K per month, and it includes industrial equipment like sinks, and fiber optic internet. That $2.4K covers everything I need. The house itself is $1.3K. They say I should be making at least three times the $2.4K rent, but I’m making about $4K every month.
