Maxed Out Your Credit Card?
My first semester in college (Carnegie Mellon University) I maxed out, not one, but two credit cards.
Idiot.
It took me ten years to fix up that mess. (I didn’t have a job so I couldn’t pay the bill. Did I mention…idiot?)
According to research, 50% of all college students max out their credit cards. So, make sure you have limit that you can manage and only use your card for emergencies and necessities…
…not “nice-i-ties”.
