After reading Xavierette's thread about who is in debt...Im just curious to know who has already fukked up their credit sine they been in school by using alotta credit cards in which they know they cant pay back...I know I have friends who have fukked up their credit already which is a bad thing... My credit is good. I dont have alot of credit to show...but of what I do have it is good, and continually building up.

NON-EXISTANT!! There is no need to have a credit card this young...especially if you not paying any "serious" bills...i.e. Car Note, Rent, Mortage, Gas/Light Bill
I disagree... If you know u are just extremely irresponisble with money then you are right...you dont need one. But by the time u are in college every one should have one just to start building up ur credit, so when u wanna buy ur first car it can be in ur name and not ya momma's name, or even get a cell phone so it can be in ur name....and plus its just good practice to learn how to use a credit card responsibly. Hell, my mother got me my first credit card at 16 so I can learn how to responsibly use them, and to build up my credit slowly...with small credit maximums...

If my credit is the least bit blemished, its because of my cell phone bills overlappin every now and then. I aint tryna have bad credit in 5-7 years, because im gonna build myself a nice little house out in the country before I'm thirty. Can't do that w/bad credit/debt.

My pops is nice and got me a card in my name that he pays the bill on. All I use it for is gas and emergencies tho. I have a friend that has been to every cellular provider and owes cingular $1100 and SunCom $400. and then let his mom get a phone is his name cuz she has worse credit than him. and he just turned 18 a few months ago.

my credit is non-existent...but they won't give me credit card because I have this lil problem with checking accounts and spending more money than I have....but thats all over because last week I cussed out the people at Suntrust and closed the account....I hate suntrust...but anywho..I have student loans...but no credit cards...if I got them I'd prolly max it out in two days...so I just avoid them...like I said...I overdraw bank accounts...imagine what I would do with a credit card...
