Credit and Credit cards.
If you want to bring your credit score up or establish your credit you are told that you need to get a credit card.
After the government stepped in to stop the credit card companies from gouging us with all of the extra fees it got worse not better.
I get credit card offers all the time. The average APR is around 25.9%. I got one the other day that was for 59.9%.
I threw it in the garbage after I stopped laughing and wiped the tears from my eyes.
I can not imagine anyone no matter how badly they needed one or how much money they made accepting a card with a rate like that.
Its time for the government to look closely at what is really going on and fix this mess.
