I do, and it is, but seeing as I struggle to pay my Sprint bill on time some months...
I had a buddy who got one of those credit card offers they throw at you when you turn eighteen, and used it for his tuition each quarter. He already had the money, and therefore turned around and paid it immediately, all the while building up good credit. He didn't use it for anything else. Smart kid. I wish I'd followed his example. The college I went to was a community college, without those things like housing or sororities or stuff.
I know I should track one down, but I'd need to know what to look for, like one that doesn't penalize you for trying to pay things off right away. I've heard there's some that do? Basically I need to educate myself and start looking, and I've been too lazy or busy or both.
