May 20th 2011 22:49
Take a look at this article if you haven't seen it already. It does a great job explaining the basic principles of finance while putting them in terms that both financial experts and the financially ignorant can understand.
One thing about credit cards though: be aware if you sign up for a points rewards program. For example, if you're signing up for a rewards program that awards points towards gas or airplane miles, then make sure you are going to be using the points.
Also, do not get under the impression that one point is always equivical to a corresponding monetary value because it can change. Basically, know what you're getting yourself into before you sign up.
And if you ever want financial advice, Mint is a great place to get it.
