Freezing your credit can come back to bite you if you'd like to buy a house, lease an apartment, buy a car, or open a new credit card within the next 6 months.

Only if you aren't willing to save the money for that up front. Of course most people prefer to get the stuff they want when they want it instead of when they can afford it (and going from renter to owner paying a mortgage does tend to be cheaper), but if you really wanted to, you could live without credit.
