I wish kids could have credit cards.?

and who would pay for them ????

I wish kids would walk the dog (and clean up after), not leave a practically empty gas tank, and just do the yard once a week without asking.

Oh, yeah, stop leaving your breakfast plate on the counter....

Those days aired long over

Back in the 1960s Credit Card companies used to send credit cards to recent HS graduates without them being requested, you either sent the card back or were considered a customer. Because I graduated from HS early I got one at 16, lucky for me Mom found out before I got in too much trouble (never leave things in your jeans pocket if Mom does the laundry)

I wish you would learn how to use this site. This is not a question, and violates the guidelines.

Chatting or otherwise violating the question-and-answer format.

Im sure you are good for a $50,000+ limit. Jobs and ability to repay are overrated.

You can have a prepaid card or a debit card. No one can lend to under 18's and even adults have trouble getting a credit card with a low interest rate. Unemployed and low wages/poor credit adults can't even get a card with bad interest rates.

They can...its just the parents who pay the bills and extend their credit.

I've had a credit card since middle school for emergencies...

I wish kids would take out the trash, hang up their wet towels and maybe ...just once clean the mud off of their shoes before running across the carpet.

Tragically, there does not seem to be great interest from financial institutions to loan money to a group of people who have limited or no income and legally can't be held to a contract.
