Why do you think people think that?

I get cash back on every credit-card purchase I make.  I won't use a
card that has an annual fee, and I won't use a card that doesn't give
me something back every time I use it.  And I pay off every one of my
credit cards in full at the end of every month, so I pay no interest
on any of my purchases.
