That's the paradox of credit card charge accounts.
Credit is a convenient form of money,
deceptively invisible, forgotten until the
monthly statement arrives as a reminder of
money spent and now owed.
Establishing credit and a credit rating are necessary to enhance a consumer's buying power, according to recent credit card application letters sent by major companies to University of Kansas students.
MOBIL OIL Corp., Sears Roebuck & Co.
Trans World Airlines Inc. and other businesses have sent seniors and graduate students letters, some two and three pages long, explaining the company's philosophy of buying on credit and building a credit card and inviting applications from students.
Being able to "charge it" is to have goods and services before paying for them, a factor that can raise a card holder's standard of living—and personal debt.
Going into debt from charging purchases on several cards is a danger many new credit card holders aren't aware of. The biggest assistant professor of business, said recently.
"THE COMPANIES are looking for people who are upwardly mobile and who need credit to sustain a high standard of living.
"The salary of a new job looks big compared to what the student has been living on, but it won't support the lifestyle he prefers.
Companies want people who they think have middle class aspirations, who would have a stable income and who would be able to pay for their payments on the money they owe, she said.
Project funding deferred
The Douglas County Commission yesterday decreed action in a county grant to the school district.
Douglas County has agreed to pay five per cent of the estimated project cost, $99,200 provided that the Governor's Commission on Criminal Administration approves a matching grant. The other 90 per cent would be federally funded.
"The companies hope people won't be able to pay off what they owe because the companies make money on the unpaid balance." Bentley said.
Bill Arnold, associate professor of sociology at the University of Kansas, proposed the halfway house and is requesting the funding.
Peter Wittenight, county commissioner, said that the commission was willing to provide funds for the project's first year but did not about what would be expected after that.
THE COUNTY would be committed to provide a matching grant of about 12 per cent in the second year of the project and 30 per cent in the third year.
SYLVIA PORTER, economist and newspaper columnist, advises in her "Money Book" that credit be used conveniently but cautiously.
The commission also approved the county appraiser's 1987 budget of $412,000, a $124,142 increase over last year. Increased salaries for officers and staffs accounted for the rise.
Hopeably, the house would be self-supporting after the first year, according to Arnold. State and county government penal institutions would contract spaces at the house and would give house officials the power they have been spent in prisons and jails.
Limited commercial zoning around Clinton Lake also was discussed by the commission. Jane Cumbet, a member of the commission, said that Douglas County planning commission, Douglas County planning commission,
Although they would probably pay the five per cent this year, Whitenight said the commission would request that it have the option to drop support after that.
She said that card holders should use only the cards they need and want and will use fairly regularly, and that purchase receipts are sent to the store face place as a check against billing errors.
proposed that the area be kept non-commercial.
George Griffin, curator of the Kansas Collection at Spencer Library, told the commission that county historical documents would be donated to KU.
The ability to pay for the goods before the statement due date in order to avoid finance charges is something card holders should consider before they buy, Porter said.
