  • How Do Secured Credit Cards Work?

    Larry Lindsey is probably not a name that you know, but he is an important figure in the history of personal finance. Currently, Mr. Lindsey is President Bush's chief domestic economic advisor.

  • Why Credit Cards Are Good
    For years, the conventional financial wisdom was "credit cards are bad." We were told that cutting up our credit cards was the only way to free ourselves from debt-ridden indentured servitude. People needed to "live within their means," and if credit cards were ever to be used, it should be "only in the case of an emergency."
