Credit card applications and discovering more
Learning to carefully evaluate any credit card offer that uses flattery is key to avoiding bad student credit card offers. * Teach them to interpret the small print. The details of student credit cards' offers are hidden in blocks of tiny print or long, confusing tables, couched in terms that are deliberately made as confusing and obscure as possible. Knowing what the jargon in credit card offers means and how to find the important information in a welter of irrelevant details is a skill your daughter or son will need to choose a credit card wisely. * Teach them how to analyze special offers.
