联系自己的生活经历,给朋友的“The Credit Card Trap”回一封建议信。
Dear,
I’m sorry to hear about your problems with your credit card. From what you were telling me, you think it’s a real mess and you are worried sick. I can understand what you are probably feeling, but look, it’s no use worrying about it—it’s an unpleasant but common experience—but the point is to take some action to solve the problem.
I suppose you’ve thought of contacting your parents to get help? Oh, I see…you can’t tell them because it happened once before, and …yes, I see. Well, let’s not go down that road. You could take out a loan to cover the debt, but in view of the previous problem I don’t think you should do that. Why not? Well, because if you get into further trouble, you’ll need another loan to pay the first loan which was supposed to pay the debt, and all the loans will involve paying interest, so it will accumulate. You’d better get a job and use the money to pay the debt. In the future, don’t use the card without writing down the amount and keep looking at your record to see if you are approaching the credit limit. Whatever happened, don’t exceed this limit because the bank will charge you interest. Try to use the card as little as possible.
Bob.
