What will you do when the lights go out?
We are spoiled by the wonderful convenience of electricity. It powers our world and we are dependent upon it. When we find ourselves without power, our world comes crashing down around us.

UNDERSTANDING CREDIT AND CREDIT CARDS

Credit cards, like loans, allow you to build up a credit history. This may help you with credit related activity such as getting a student loan, car loans, renting an apartment, or buying a house. Credit cards are also convenient since they provide a reduced need to carry cash or checks, and provide security in case of an emergency.

However, credit cards are not for everyone, and if you have one you need to act responsibly. You need to be able to afford a credit card, and also need to try to pay off the balance each month. The over-use of credit cards has been a major reason why so many individuals have too much debt, and why bankruptcy rates are high.

Consumers are bombarded with offers from credit card companies, offering various incentives and interest rate options. For those that fall into the credit trap, being in debt seems almost forever. Meanwhile, high interest charges and late payment fees eat up most of their available money. Many credit card holders do not even know how much they are paying in interest, and what impact it has on their overall financial well-being.

Credit cards are plastic cards issued by a bank or other business allowing the holder of the card to purchase goods and services without using cash, also called buying on credit. They allow you to purchase things that you may not currently have the money to buy.
When you use a credit card, the credit company that issued the credit card pays the store. Later, you will get a bill in the mail from your credit card company for the amount you purchased. At that time, you can either pay the bill in full, or only pay a minimum amount, and wait till later to finish paying. If you wait till later, you will owe the credit card company interest on the amount that you do not pay.
