I just got done with school and I'm working a FT job. I've only kind of poked the world of consumer credit. My parents don't take a very educational approach to money- only telling me that credit is bad. Well it's true to an extent- it's only bad if you don't know how to manage it.
My HS had a 1 hour "credit" seminar that skimmed FICO scores but didn't go too in depth. My college just sent me financial guide emails saying (literally) "Are you in debt? You're SOL!"
So I took it upon myself to know more and I stumble here to myFICO. At first I was skeptical and did the 10 day trial. I really liked it. Canceling was a breeze and I was concerned it wouldn't be an immediate request. (Honestly it looks like it would take you guys some time to cancel when it's actually immediate)
Anyway, I think by monitoring my credit score and lurking on the forums will educate me more about credit. I think what you guys do is awesome and $15 a month is a small price to pay for information.
Thanks a lot for the awesome website

By hanging out here I've got to think you're already ahead of most people your age when it comes to knowing how to handle credit. I know a lot of us old timers wish we had known this kind of thing when we were your age.
Best of luck to you!
