An interesting discussion about credit cards. I didn't realize they were so important to you younger people.

I do know carrying more than 7% credit card debt to available credit will lower your credit score.

I would advise a brokerage debit card. Otherwise, pay cash. Do Not start a new life off in debt.....


Young people posting on a money board are obviously very involved in their financial situation so I doubt anyone carries over debt each month. Before I read this board regularly I put everything on my debit card. Since April, I already have about $600 cash back on my Amex Blue Preferred.

Why do I hear about student loans? Why do I hear about debt forgiveness? There were programs back in the 60s-80s. They paid for college, you worked for them 5-10 years.

Why borrow? Unless you don't intend to pay it back? Don't insurance companies sell credit life? Go figure....
