My little spot on the Internet about credit cards
Your teenager is about to leave for university, to learn, to grow. and to be rushed with offers for student credit cards. This is no petty annoyance. Credit card companies target college campuses, courting students with freebies and attractive promotional offers that might not be so attractive six months down the line. Companies are stunningly successful at getting students to accept cards and to use them: A study found that students left college in New York with an average of four credit cards and more than three thousand dollars of credit card debt.
