• US Bank-Ruptcy Bracket

  I was thinking the exact same thing and was a little disappointed they are not even on my bracket? For that matter, SVB was not a top 20 bank, despite everyone claiming they were #16. I guess it all comes down to how you define it (which is why I included the nerdwallet.com disclaimer about how they came up with their list). - Source: Reddit / 7 days ago

• Why is Honors banned in Hampton Inns in China?

• Um I'm stuck and I could really use some financial advice.

  Payday Loans are bad, and credit cards are good. You can go to nerdwallet.com and find cards that will help you build credit. Just make sure you get a card that has no annual fee, and only use the card twice a year on stuff you have the money for like a bag of chips, and then pay the balance off. That's all you need to do to start building credit. If you're old enough you can open an online-only bank account in... - Source: Reddit / 3 months ago

• dad, what's the point of credit?

  I'll offer a couple of things to think about. First, apartments ask for/want to know about your credit history because they want to know if you'll be able to pay them on time (are you responsible with money). They are going to give you a place to stay and in turn they want to be paid and a credit score gives them a good idea of who would pay and who wouldn't. A good score is anything above 700. You of course don't... - Source: Reddit / 3 months ago
