3 FACTORS DETERMINE THE COST OF USING CREDIT
1. SIZE OF THE LOAN OR AMOUNT BORROWED - INTEREST IS HIGHER THE MORE YOU HAVE TO BORROW
2. ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE (APR) - THIS IS THE ANNUAL RATE YOU WILL PAY PER YEAR
3. REPAYMENT TIME - THE LONGER YOU PAY BACK THE MORE IT WILL COST YOU

CREDIT CONTRACTS

THIS IS A LEGALLY BINDING AGREEMENT SO READ CAREFULLY BEFORE YOU SIGN

HANDLING CREDIT PROBLEMS
CREDIT PROBLEMS CAN EXIST BECAUSE OF DIFFERENT SITUATIONS - ILLNESS, DEATH, JOB LOSS.
THEY CAN ALSO EXIST WHEN YOU MISUSE CREDIT AND BUY SOMETHING YOU REALLY COULDN'T AFFORD.

CREDIT PROBLEMS
WHEN CREDIT PROBLEMS DO OCCUR TRY AND HANDLE THEM AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE OTHERWISE COLLECTORS WILL START REPERCUSSIONS AND YOU COULD LOOSE EVERYTHING.

2 WHOLE LIFE INSURANCE - COVERS FOR A LIFETIME NOT A SPECIFIC NUMBER OF YEARS
3. UNIVERSAL LIFE INSURANCE - COMBINES TERM WITH AN INVESTMENT FEATURE - THE CASH VALUE IS INVESTED

HEALTH INSURANCE

HEALTH INSURANCE IS EXPENSIVE BECAUSE HEALTH CARE IS EXPENSIVE

HEALTH INSURANCE
1. YOU USUALLY HAVE A DEDUCTIBLE THAT HAS TO BE MET BEFORE YOUR INSURANCE WILL PAY FOR ANYTHING
2. WHEN YOU GO FOR A CHECK UP OR VISIT YOU HAVE TO PAY A COPAY WHICH IS A SET AMOUNT EACH TIME
3. THEN YOUR INSURANCE WILL ONLY PAY A PERCENTAGE OF THE BILL AND YOU HAVE TO PAY THE REST
