Some posts on student credit cards
* Charge only things you really need. It's easy to think of credit as fun money, but you have to pay for all those extra treats eventually. Charge only when you truly need an item and you know you'll be able to pay it off shortly. * Don't let the promise of rebates or points sway you to charge more. The money you'll pay in interest exceeds the money the credit card issuer will give you as part of the reward program.
