Nancy Cordes previews her "CBS Evening News" segment on how credit card companies are targeting kids; it's part of the "Gotta Have It" series. (CBSNews.com)
cc companys offer a service and for this they have to be paid and make a proft ...it's just business. Accept responsibility for your own spending habits and do not blame the bank or cc company for your debt . I pay mine every month so the interst rate is a mute point .
that sucks. some kids learn to use money by using those games. Now they won't even have that. Credit card companies are scum; they give you free money, charge you up the wazoo to use it, and then slam you with outrageous fees when you fall behind: putting you further behind. where does it end?
If the big companies had their way, we'd all be in debt with no chance of rising above due to such high interest rates. The new "indentured SLAVE" of the future.
what? none of my friends have credit cards, but then again kids in my school do, but at the same time, i live in connecticut

buyers beware: this is a red flag for where our future is headed. recall if you will the old adage, "In God we trust all others pay cash."

That's stupid. I mean, the cash is annoying sometimes, but I'd rather have the money than a credit card.
