Credit cards, medical expenses, financial obligation
When credit cards were introduced to students, they were viewed as advantageous, but concerns
arose about the risks that they presented this group. However, the final decision that came after
deliberations of University administration officials, students and organizations offering these
services is that credit cards are advantageous to students (Louise, John and Paul, 2). Any
financial obligation brings with itself both advantages and disadvantages. Credit cards have both
positive and negative impacts on students.
Credit cards enable students to pay for unplanned emergencies. Some emergencies are so urgent
that there is no time to seek help from parents and family members who are miles away. Students
can pay for medical expenses and unplanned travelling tickets in case of emergencies (Louise,
John and Paul, 2). Many online learning articles are offered on credit. Students may need these
articles during their exams to refer to some information. Large amounts of car repair bills can be
paid by use of credit cards. In cases like this, students can use credit cards to purchase these
articles online without necessarily going to the book stores to look for them.
