National Get Smart About Credit Day was established by the ABA (American Bankers Association) to help encourage young people to get a handle on their credit from the very beginning.
By educating people on the forms of credit and how to properly increase, manage, and protect your credit score, they ensure that the coming generation will have smart investors who are able to improve their lot in life without being buried in debt.
To shed some light on the severity of the situation, one need only look at the average American household and the debt that they hold. It is not at all uncommon for American households to have over $15k in credit card debt alone, not including student loans ($49k), auto loans ($28k) and homes that often are in the range of $170-$175k.
Every year this debt only continues to rise, and that’s why it became imperative that the ABA begin educating people everywhere on how to protect themselves from the destructive force that is financial debt.
Presentations and instructional documents on how to ensure that families have a secure financial future are their stock and trade. National Get Smart About Credit Day is your opportunity to join this movement and get educated on securing your credit for the future.
