Granted, I don't know anything about credit ratings, but I DO know a lot about people who spent money they didn't have and are now in a pickle...

I hear credit cards are useful for getting a good credit rating which may come in handy later? I'm someone who doesn't like to part with money, irrespective of what I'm going to get out of it, so I suspect I wouldn't be a very debt-y person! @April: Heh, thanks for the advice.

If you really want it, it's worth the wait and credit cards usually mean trouble for young people. My sister, for example, turned 20 in January and has debt up to her eyeballs because she found it all too easy to slide that little piece of plastic all too often. DON'T DO IT! :) Job 2 sounds very much like my job at the library haha ;)
