Smart Credit

Credit can be friend or foe. Using credit wisely is a lesson for us all. Credit means using future income to pay for things you need or want now. Here are basic tips on using your credit wisely:

1. Debts that are secured with assets usually have lower interest rates.

2. You may be able to re-establish credit with a co-signor or a secured credit card.

People often get caught up in improper credit card use. Bad uses of credit are: Impulse buys, spending  too much on individual items and maxing out your cards. The result is tying up future revenue, less income available in case of emergencies and unmanageable interest rates. Click here for tips on credit card use.
