i have some "cash for college" info you guys MIGHT be interested in. if you guys dont already know there is this program called upromise where if you make purchases online a % (very very small %) goes toward your college education its adds up tho'. you can have your parents sign for you to apply for the upromise mastercard or wait until you're 18. the benifits of the credit card is that savings add up like frequent flyer miles, ya know you gain as you spend BUT THE BIGGEST BENIFIT is that we are young adults and some of us are going to be completely on our own right after hs graduation or sometime after that well i hope so of course like with any credit card the more RESPONSIBLY we use it the higher your credit score goes up. in the ADULT WORLD you need credit to buy, furniture or to apply for a bank loan, etc. b/c remember going away to college means NO PARENTAL HELP! INDEPENDENCE DOES COME WITH A PRICE ($$$$) and like my daddy says ANY CREDIT IS BETTER THAN NO CREDIT AT ALL! SO LOOK INTO IT WITH YOUR PARENTS AND RESPONSIBLY CUZ MY DADDY ALSO SAYS ONCE YOUR CREDIT IS UP ITS UP.... upromise.com
