Socratica Presents SMART MONEY
Many people are embarrassed that they aren't great with money. We believe it's never to late to learn! We're all about Lifelong Learning here at Socratica, and we are here to help you increase your Financial Literacy.
The theme of SMART MONEY is making informed choices.

It's easy to overspend when you have a credit card, or even go into debt. In this video, we discuss how you can be smart about using credit cards as a financial tool to manage your money.
It starts with understanding the pros and cons. Some of the CONS include having to pay interest, fees and penalties, and the increased risk of going into debt.
But there are some reas PROS to using credit cards as well! These include great convenience and safety. You don't have to carry around huge wads of cash, and even if someone uses your card fraudulently, you are protected by credit card insurance so you don't have to pay the false charges. It's also a way to build your credit history.
If, after weighing the pros and cons, you decide to apply for a card, we'll talk about what that process involves. And then once you have a credit card, what you can expect every month from your statement and the billing cycle.

One important piece of advice we hope you will take is that it really helps your financial health if you don't make just the minimum payment on your credit card balance. To Learn MORE about this idea, you can visit a special short exercise for you to see the numbers. It's available here on our website (socratica.com):
