Avoid credit cards as much as possible.

There are better ways to get loans and credits without being ripped off. Just have one or two major credit cards.....No more than 5 maximum.

http://www.grameen-info.org/index.ph...=19&Itemid=114


The origin of Grameen Bank can be traced back to 1976 when Professor Muhammad Yunus, Head of the Rural Economics Program at the University of Chittagong, launched an action research project to examine the possibility of designing a credit delivery system to provide banking services targeted at the rural poor. The Grameen Bank Project (Grameen means "rural" or "village" in Bangla language) came into operation with the following objectives:

extend banking facilities to poor men and women;

eliminate the exploitation of the poor by money lenders;

create opportunities for self-employment for the vast multitude of unemployed people in rural Bangladesh;

bring the disadvantaged, mostly the women from the poorest households, within the fold of an organizational format which they can understand and manage by themselves; and

reverse the age-old vicious circle of "low income, low saving & low investment", into virtuous circle of "low income, injection of credit, investment, more income, more savings, more investment, more income".

@ Dew....Thank you for the link, the Grameen Bank is a trusted Brand.
The founder Professor Yunus, won the nobel prize for it in 2006.
I listened to a report on how they have empowered poor women, and changed the lives of the rural poor, In a lot of third world countries. These are folks who would not have had acess to credit, if not for the Grameen Bank, and the innovative way they have extended credit, to those, who would have found traditional loan facilities too tough to qualify for, and who customarily relied on predatory lenders.

They come highly recommended.

Very highly recommended......I think Bill Clinton, when he was governor of Arkansas invited Yunus to come and set up similar models in the US. It has been successful in California and Illinois I think.

Other Grameen-inspired programs began to address poverty in the United States from urban Chicago to Sioux and Cherokee reservations. Bill Clinton, then governor of Arkansas, asked Yunus to help set up a similar program in his home state in 1986. The Clintons remained avid supporters of the Grameen Bank. Yunus traveled to the United States in 1987 to testify before a Congressional committee; this resulted in extensive media coverage. Two years later, "Sixty Minutes" dispatched a crew to Bangladesh to report on the bank's success.

Very low failure/pay back rate default rate too. Very helpful tips from their websites. Very useful resource for women especially looking to get on their feet. You are welcome.
