Lesson 2:
Credit and Debt 
  • Debt: a promise to repay money, in other words, a loan

  • Borrowed from a lender to buy good

  • Credit: reputation for paying off debts from a financial aspect

  • Makes you either more or less reliable to other potential lenders

  • Have you paid your debts in the past?

  • Reflected in credit scores

  • Some people choose never to take loans, therefore, no credit score

  • Can be stable, but can cause problems in future if you do want to borrow money 

  • No financial reputation 

  • No credit can mean no loan

  • Make small purchases on credit, pay back debts on time, maintain long credit history, and limit credit applications
