Its amazing how many of my friends ended up in the same boat as you. I'm guessing your college had those people from the credit card companies signing up people left and right on campus as well?

I was very lucky to have a credit card my senior year in hs to pay for gas and emergencies. The bill went to my parents but the card was in my name so I got the good credit score from it and my parents were there to help oversee my spending habits and correct my actions before things got out of control like it does for almost everyone out there.

My credit card came right after my first 4 years in the army, I saw the credit line, which was $5000, and low interest rate, and I was hooked.. I learned a very important lesson.. If you dont have the cash for it, you dont need it.. and all you need is one credit card, used only for emergencies and or if you cant pay if off within a month, its not worth having.

You can go if you give me your hazard pay.

Do you know what his job is?

How do you get hooked up with one of those, I can't google them anywhere (obviously because the real deal ones aren't publicly advertised)

Mostly agree. I only use 2. One for everyday purchases like gas/groceries (this card has high interest because of high rewards return). Pay this one off every month and milk the rewards points. Second card is the emergency card with high limit and low interest in case something goes wrong like house repairs etc.

A friend of mine did this and went to work for the state department. He was one of the people murdered in the Benghazi attack.

I also want you to go to Afghanistan, or pretty much anywhere else, and stay there
