Credit Card Nation: The Consequences of America’s Addiction to Credit
Credit Card Nation: The Consequences of America’s Addiction to Credit
Credit-card debt is choking American prosperity off at the neck. In Credit Card Nation, Robert D. Manning tells a fascinating story about the present and future consequences of credit dependence across all strata of U.S. society. Through extensive interviews with consumers, Manning talks to debtors, and to average Americans, affected by what Manning describes as our “credit card nation”: an American juggernaut of indebtedness that spans personal, corporate, and governmental debt.
No interest for one year! No annual fee! No minimum payments for six months! And, if you want to believe Robert Manning, there’s no way out of the debt that we find ourselves in, as individuals and as a country. Credit Card Nation combines debt of every kind–consumer, corporate, and governmental–and creates a vast landscape of profit-spewing lenders and struggling debtors present at every level of economics. Appalling statistics set readers off on a depressing journey: the years between 1980 and 1994 saw annual consumer charges skyrocket from 0 billion to 1 billion, with the average household carrying over ,000 in revolving debt. Accompanied by the erasure of nearly 0 billion in corporate debt and tremendous tax cuts for ever-merging conglomerates, the end of the 20th century seems to be just the beginning of an overwhelming cycle. While Manning’s book is extensively researched, it is also extremely readable. Individual stories of junk bondsmen, corporate raiders, and middle-class consumers are threaded throughout the pages of charts and statistics, with a few surprises. While most media would have us believe that students who rack up charge accounts are totally irresponsible, the reality is that some of these students are helping their families with cash-advance loans to make mortgage or insurance payments. Emphasis is also placed on the tremendous advertising budgets of credit card companies: Manning comments on “how quickly the cultural norms have changed in the Credit Card Nation,” we see a poster insisting “money can’t buy you love, but a credit card can get you started.” This is not a self-help book, and Manning has no 12-step program for debtors at any level. Credit Card Nation simply tells it as it is. –Jill Lightner

Can I call the credit card company and ask for a higher limit?
Question by starfishblues: Can I call the credit card company and ask for a higher limit?
I got a credit card about 6 months ago with a limit of just $ 800. It’s a student credit card. Can I call the credit card company and ask for a higher credit limit? I’ve heard you can ask for a lower interest rate and sometimes they’ll give it to you, but is the same true for a higher credit limit?
Thanks in advance.
Best answer:
Answer by Dr. Savvas
As a general rule, banks are always happy to give a higher credit limit.
However it does depend on the specific bank that you’ve been issued the card.
Usually banks look at your income and sources of funding prior to increasing the credit limit, but they do not pay much attention to it. So most probably the bank will increase the credit limit,
if not. tell them you found a better deal with some other bank, they will then ask which bank; give them a bank’s name in random and provide them with a reasonable deal and I guarantee you that they will match it.(the deal)

What are the downfalls to a cash advance on a credit card?
Question by Tom W: What are the downfalls to a cash advance on a credit card?
I need a 3000 dollar loan for a car, but my mom says, to avoid full coverage insurance, we get these cash advance credit card things in the mail all the time where you can take 3000 out of the credit card then pay it of, but i dont know if my mom know hat shes talking about, because I dont want to be paying this off for the next 10 years
Best answer:
Answer by Michelle
1, Cash advances on a credit card come with high interest rates, meaning that in the longrun your car will be more expensive.
#2, IF something happens to your $ 3,000 car (broken, wrecked, etc…), you still have to repay your loan. – If you had full coverage with the option that your insurance company would pay off your car, then you wouldn’t have to worry about what happens if your car gets smashed a week after you get it.
Then again, $ 3,000 is pretty cheap for a car. So the risk might be worth it to you. … I would also look into the option of getting a “personal” loan from a bank. If you qualify, the money would be yours to spend on whatever you want. But they would not be able to force you to buy more insurance coverage than you want.

What types of credit cards pays the customer for using the card?
Question by kiwi753: What types of credit cards pays the customer for using the card?
Can you please include the types of cards that a 19- year- old can get. What I mean is, some credit cards are difficult to receive based on age etc. I have a credit card and I dont like that company and I am about to actually close the account, but I want another credit card..
Best answer:
Answer by Lee
Speaking from experience, there are quite a few of credit cards that offer money back… I’m just not exactly sure if companies have varying names for these types of credit cards. The card I have is from Citi Bank and the card is called “Citi Dividends.” The way mine works is that for each $ 100 that I charge I get $ 1 back. It isn’t much, but there is no annual fee for this card either. Also, after the “dividends” is up to $ 50, you can call or go on their website to request that a check be cut. So, they’ll cut you a check that you’ll receive within a week or 2 for exactly $ 50… No taxes taken out or anything. =) Hope that helps!
