Key take away: "If you're responsible enough, then get a credit card. Otherwise, just stick with a prepaid or debit card".

so happy to see a Filipina (and a Cebuana!) discuss personal finance in a more relevant setting. Thanks for this!

I wish I found your videos/channel before I got employed in 2019. I was really struggling on managing my salary on my first year of being employed even when I have a background in accounting and finance. So, just want to say thank you haha Keep making informative videos like this!

[@nikkicanceran2668]

Hi! So glad I came across your channel. I’m a newbie when it comes to personal finance as I just started really minding about money matters such as savings, investments, etc. I’m also planning to apply for my first credit card so this is really helpful. I hope you could make in-depth videos about investments for beginners like where and how to start especially with the pandemic going on right now. Thank you so much! I’ll definitely recommend your channel to my friends 👌🏼☺️

[@CharmdeLeon]

Nikki Canceran thank you, Nikki! I have this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/pH-VpZaImqmgqK8 but I’ll definitely make a more detailed one with suggestion on where and how to get started on investing ☺️

[@ninja_1OORacer]

Credit card means you spend money you don’t have, plain and simple. Here in America, having debt is normal that’s why when pandemic happened majority of them were worried about losing their jobs coz of bills. Having savings for rainy days is a must unless you want to be “normal” e.i in debt. Just my two cents. I’m sure same principle applies in the Philippines.

[@KAfNGET]

Its my first time applying for a credit card. Ayaw ko na kasi umuutang sa iba. However on top of this. natatakot din ako mag credit card kasi big responsibility din tlga pag may CC ka. But this video helped alot and made me feel confident with owning one.

Being new to adulting, the topics are very helpful and explained simply and clearly which makes it easy for anyone and everyone to understand. One question, do you have any specific credit card recommendations for someone who's getting one for the first time? (in terms of not having that high of an annual fee but has good rewards) Looking forward to more practical and informative videos! More power to you and your channel, Charm 😁

[@CharmdeLeon]

Angelica.R hi, Angelica! Thank you so much 😊 appreciate the kind words. It really depends in your lifestyle, do you shop online? Gas up? Grocery? Travel (in the future 😂)? I really like the Citibank cards but they’re harder to get into than others but you can try their CitiRewards, CitiSimplicity, Citi CashBack, or get one from a bank you have a savings account with for easier approval

great video! just what i needed as i wanted to apply for my first credit card. one question though, what do you recommend for a first credit card? is it better to choose one without the annual fee but with no rewards, or one that has an annual fee but with rewards?

[@CharmdeLeon]

Christina Gunter hi! My suggestion would be to get a card with a minimal annual fee like 1,500 or 2,500 (max), if you spend enough (240-300k/yr), you can usually get the annual fee waived, if not, they kind of pay for themselves in the forms of rewards, rebates, or the just the convenience of it. They’re pretty worth it in my opinion 😊

Thanks i am 21yrs old starting my business but i don't have enough money . Unionbank keep calling me these days to apply for a credit card i am considering it

[@CharmdeLeon]

Allyza Tumaque I usually don’t encourage starting a business with debt, but if you can pay your credit card in full every month from your sales, (like but grocery and cook and sell those) then it’s okay.

[@CharmdeLeon]

That’s called leveraging debt. And as long as you don’t skip paying in full. It should be okay
