    I am 19 and have been scared of getting a credit card for a while, since I felt like I can somehow pay for everything with debit. However I realized that I can use credit just fine as long as I handle it responsibly, so I am studying credit cards a lot to make sure I don't make any mistakes. Responsibility is key. Awesome video, concise and informative, I subscribed.

    Well I am also new to credit cards but basic point to remember is: Use ideally 30% of your overall limit (e.g. my credit line limit is 4500€ so I set my credit line to 1500€ which I can use). From this 1500€, ideal credit utilization is 30% so around 450-500€ which I can easily pay off in FULL. Full payment is best option. I got my card to pay for gas and usual stuff, not to spend money I dont have. I just wanted something to build my credit but I did not want to buy some depreciating electronics on financing. Do not change your spending habits (if so, decrease them). Credit card is not your money.

    What about how the credit bureau only looks for available credit? They don't care if you've used the card at all as long as you keep 70+ percent of you available credit open and unused. Interest is the least of your worries. If you spend above 30 percent of your available credit and leave it as a remaining balance the next statement period, your credit score goes down, regardless if you make the minimum payments on time. This is why so many people have low scores even though they pay on time on a balance that remains. That's an important key to the game. They think you have to actually spend on a credit card for your credit to grow. That's not how revolving credit works. That's how installment credit works.

    So if I have a $500 credit line and I use $150 or less, would that be 30% utilization? And also if I use $150.. I would pay the $150+ any fees or interest if applicable?

    • @HonestFinance
      @HonestFinance  2 роки тому +3

      Yes spending $150 would be 30% of $500. You’ll only pay interest if you don’t pay off the statement balance in full by the due date. So if it came to $150, then pay off $150 by the due date and you’re good to go

    • @stiingrayy
      @stiingrayy 3 роки тому +1

      @@queenbri5534 You for sure need to spend money using your credit card in order to build your credit. There won’t be a statement balance since you did not use any money using your credit card.
      Let this be an example: You spend only $500 using your credit card for a month. You now owe $500 to the company that you’re using the credit card for and that is your statement balance. You pay the $500 in time and now your credit score increases gradually. If you do not spend money at all, there is no way for you to pay back money that you owe... since none was spent. If an account becomes inactive for too long (time length can depend on who you choose) the company will close your account, thus, will hurt your credit.
      Important Rule: DONT CLOSE YOUR ACCOUNT!! It will hurt your credit score, so only do this when you already have a plan in mind. Don’t do it soon after getting an account.
      Hope this helps, good luck :)

      The credit card company gives you a billing due date, but you can change that date. I have discover card and can view and change my billing date online when I sign into my account. Call the phone number on the back of your credit card to find out how you can view and change your billing due date.
      My billing date is the first of every month, which means whatever I spend from December 1st to December 31st on the card, I have to pay all of it back before or on January 1st in order to avoid interest.

    The bill statement confuses me. So if I have 100 dollars in my account and buy something for 40. At the end of the month I have to pay off that 40 dollars? So I’m basically paying 80 because of the thing I bought and now I have to pay it off?

    • @HonestFinance
      @HonestFinance  3 роки тому

      No. Your billing statement would end and they’d give you a due date to pay off the $40.

    So I think I messed this up somehow because my credit score dropped after my first month 15 is because I spent the limit and paid it then spent it again before my first payment it just freaks me out.

      You’re only suppose to spend 9% of your spending limit per month to boost your score. You do not want to use your credit card that much otherwise your credit utilization score will be too high and it can hurt your score. So if your credit limit is 1500 a month 9% of that would be 135 a month

    What about finance deals? Suppose If I buy a guitar which will cost around 800GBP and i want to pay that over 24months . But I also have a credit limit of 1000GBP.. Then how can i avail this deal without incurring interests on mothly installments?

      You could look into getting one of the credit cards with 0% intro sign up bonus. Usually you can get 15 months with 0% interest. If you want to learn more, make sure to subscribe!

    • @Ash-nh2pq
      @Ash-nh2pq 4 роки тому +2

      Benjamin Hanson you can only put your own money on a debit card usually. A credit card is when the company gives you money that you can use until you’re able to pay them back. So none of the balance or money on the credit card is your own money. it’s like a loan from a bank where you only have to pay back what you spend

    • @HonestFinance
      @HonestFinance  2 роки тому

      The outstanding bal includes the statement bal, so I’d check back a couple days later and see if the info updates. If you over pay, you’ll end up with a credit on your account

    if I take a payment plan and pay on time before the due date, am I still gonna be charged for interest?

    • @HonestFinance
      @HonestFinance  4 роки тому +2

      Just pay off the full statement balance before the due date and you’re good

    • @Ash-nh2pq
      @Ash-nh2pq 4 роки тому +2

      So if you spend $45 in a month, you should pay back that $45 before the end of the month. If you only pay the $20 minimum payment, then APR will be applied to the difference (45-20=$25). So $25 will accrue interest. But if you pay the $45 for the month you spent it, there will be no interest charged. I wish this video would’ve explained that more because that’s the most confusing part to me.

    • @HonestFinance
      @HonestFinance  4 роки тому +2

      Just pay off the entire statement balance every month and you’ll never pay any interest
