Healthy Credit

In May, the New York Times published an Op-Ed article comparing Credit Cards to Nutritional Facts.  I think this is a brilliant example of using something standard to explain something completely confusing, complicated, and not well understood (especially to young people).

I personally think personal finances and life in general should be a standard Undergraduate class.  I have no idea what mortgages, 401Ks, Health Insurance, Car Insurance, or Credit is all about.  But thats discussion is for another day.

Anyways, here is their "Credit Cards Facts".  For the full article go here: http://www.nytimes.com/2009/05/24/opinion/24gibson.html
