I've been surfing the internet for two hours searching for it and would have given my right arm if I would have located your website sooner. Not only did I locate what I was looking for, but found answers to questions I never thought to ask. Thank you for such a wonderful web-site!

Then its simply a very convenient way of paying through cash, without always having to carry enough bills around and worrying about saving loose change. Plus, I get 3% cashback with my rewards credit card!!!! There’s nothing wrong with credit cards if you simply pay out your balances every month in full.

Credit cards usually get a bad name from the people that don't know how to use them and students just assume they are bad altogether. Listen, if you pay your bill off in full each month, you can really take advantage of the rewards! It’s so nice to see someone write nice thing about credit cards and students.

No college student should be given a credit card at 19% APR. Personally, I find myself with $6,000 in credit card debt and no income to possibly manage the $171 a month just to keep my head above water. I started my academic career with no debt, but over the last 5 years things have gotten out of control. I'm worried that I'll start my career in 2.5 years in crippling debt or even bankruptcy. How about an SDN exclusive about that from someone with NO vested interest in the outcome of the advice? This “advice” should just be deleted.

Most young people apply for credit cards to show their independence and credit institutions take this opportunity.

The whole point of being a doctor is helping people. There are plenty of other career oppurtunities that allow to be out of poverty and without a budget that do not involve patient's lives. Maybe you should reconsider being a doctor if all you are concerned about is money! The whole point of being a doctor does not have anything to do with staying out of poverty.

Establish your credit? FOR WHAT? To buy a house? Well, let's see, if you are a doctor making 120k/yr and taking home about 85k, and spend 35k on expenses, then it will only take 4 years to save your own money to buy your own house. Want a car? Save another year and buy a 50k car with cash. The whole point of being a doctor is to not have to be forever in POVERTY paying the minimum monthly payment b/c of stupid spur of the moment purchases and not having a BUDGET. Pt 2…

Building your credit is the biggest myth the banks have sold society. People with money don't need credit cards, it is only people who don't have money that need them. Be wise and steer clear of credit cards especially when you are an UNEMPLOYED/UNDEREMPLOYED student, you really can't afford it. This has to be the most absurd thing I have ever read.
