How old credit ??

how old do you have to be to get credit?? or just to get a credit card??

Answers:
You legally have to be 18 to get a credit card, but I actually got one when I was 16 because apparently they messed up my birthday. If you want some just apply for a few and maybe you'll get them. If your parents are willing they can put you as a card holder on one of their accounts so you can begin to build your credit. Or perhaps they could apply for a new one that is pretty much just for you that has a small limit and put you as a card holder. Just BE CAREFUL! Don't get in over your head..
