    Debt = Trap

     

    美国这边现金的使用几率很低,钱包里带几十美元有时候一个月也花不出去,大家干什么都用信用卡。用过信用卡的人都知道,信用卡,花起钱来就很容易没数,一没数,就很容易入不敷出,一入不敷出,那么利息随之而来,一般都是20%-30%高利贷,利息滚利息,让你永无翻身之日,彻底沦为银行的还卡奴。美国人,屁股后面欠一万多美金是很正常的事情,经常看到很多美国年轻人,由于无法还清信用卡债务,年纪轻轻的就宣布破产。

     

    信用卡的额度,也是千差万别,从500美元开始,一直到好几万美元的都有,关键看你的信用记录和银行发卡人的心情。

     

    有许多中国学生申请到额度七八千的信用卡,兴奋不已,觉得很有成就感。但是如果仔细一想,月收入没有变化,给你再多的信用额度又有什么用呢?

     

    欠了债,迟早是要还得。如果月收入只有信用卡额度的几分之一,再高的信用额度又有什么用处呢?除非有一天,你彻底不想在这边混了, 比如听说过一个印尼来的学生,毕业之前,狂请大家吃饭,狂消费,欠银行一大笔,然后拍拍屁股走人。这样的话,算是他赚了,但是他也别想再来美国了。

     

    所以,我觉得,信用额度和收入之间的差,其实是银行给你设的一个圈套。在收入没变的情况下,信用额度越高,银行给你设的圈套就越大。

     

    现在你还觉得别人给你设的圈套越大,你越开心么?
