Visa. MasterCard. American Express. They are
credit cards, and everyone wants one. You see people
use them in movies and on television, in magazines
and in real life. People see something they want, and
with a credit card, they get it. A credit card is like a
genie, but there seems to be no limit to the number of
wishes it can grant.
Credit cards seem like a one-way ticket to paradise,
giving you the power to buy, buy, buy whatever you
desire. A flick of the wrist, and you can have a new
computer or video game. Just sign on the line and walk
out with your brand-new compact disc or gold chain.
Put the card in a machine, and out pour crisp new
twenty-dollar bills.
