    Just a quick heads up.

    Great u have your 1st credit card, I remember that feeling well.

    What ever you do, be very very carefull how you use it, I would hate for anybody to get into the financial mess like I find myself in now, all these years later.

    Im not being your mum but please please be carefull & dont go mad with it, its way to easy to lose control when you get your first card.
