The gal whose father gave her a credit card "for emergency use only" who had maxed it out by the end of October and didn't know how she was going to tell here dad. (But doesn't she look cute in that new sweater?!?) Or the gal whose parents forced her to go to college. They paid full tuiting and room & board in a private school. Their daughter was in my religion class. She came once. She never dropped the class. She chose to watch TV instead. She failed every class her first semester and dropped out. Why? Because she didn't want to be there in the first place and chose television over an education! Sad.

I fell into credit card debt several times actually. Once during college, then once again about a year & a half ago.

Maybe if I had the balls lol. Kick boxing is as far as I'm willing to go. Don't go? Advice that TONS of my fellow college students should have considered. 23 with a history degree unemployed with debt is not the dream life. Co-op? Best idea ever. Say no to credit cards?
