Going to be a college student, opened up an account today.. please help?
So I opened up an account at Wells Fargo today that includes savings, checking, debit, and a college credit card. How do I build up my credit score? My banker told me there is a higher interest for college credit cards, but after making payments on time they will lower it, is this true? Well I'm currently just working as a private tutor for the summer making about $100 a week, and planning on getting a job when I get to Boston. Do you have any advice on handling a credit card and not being irresponsible about it? My parents don't think I can handle it, but I want to show them I can make payments and all. So any advice on college credit cards and the whole deal?
How much should I put in savings and checking? My credit card max is $700 btw.
Answer
Part of how you build credit is by making payment. So buy something with the card - maybe something you need for school or fill your gas tank a few times. Then put the card away and pay off those purchases over a couple month. When you get to school, use the card to buy your books. And again, pay it off over a couple months. Doing this a few times will build credit history and show you are responsible about making payments.
The one thing to avoid is the temptation to treat the credit card as if you have free money to spend - using it to go to the movie, go to lunch, buy a new CD, etc. There's nothing wrong with doing this from time to time, if you do it on a regular basis you'll max your card in no time and that's often when you can start getting into trouble. Been there, done that.
The other thing is to make your payments on time and pay more than the minimum whenever you can. I would recommend using the on-line bill pay to manage as many regular payments as you can - rent, utilities, car payment, insurance, etc. This way you can schedule the payments at your leisure and better manage when you make your payments. Along with this, use direct deposit if your employer offers it. That way you don't have to worry about making it to the bank on time.
As for what to put in savings and what to put in checking. This largely depends on your income and expenses. If your monthly expenses are about the same as your monthly income, then it's going to be difficult to save anything. However, you could dump your money into the savings account and then transfer it to checking when it's time to pay a bill. But if you plan to use your debit card a lot, be very careful because it's easy to forget about a purchase and then wind up overdrawing your account. One or two NSF or overdraw fees can really hurt your budget.
One more thing to consider. I'm assuming the savings account is just a standard savings which gets about 1/4% interest. If you're actually going to be able to save money, I would recommend opening a high interest (often on-line only) savings account. These accounts can pay 3%-4% as long as you're willing to deal with minimal withdraws and do everything on-line. I would even recommend having a savings account at a different bank so it's more of a hassle to move money from savings to checking and therefore you're likely to be more careful about dipping into savings.
