The Nevada System of Higher Education partnered with TIAA to develop a four-part newsletter series focused on building smart money habits, understanding credit and debt, and beginner investing. Please see below for the second edition which includes links to on-demand webinars.
Credit cards: Friend or foe? Let’s break it down
Are credit cards good or bad? The truth is it depends on how you use them. If you're among the majority of Gen Z (72.2%) or Millennials (77.9%) with credit card debt,* you're not alone — but your credit habits today will impact everything from renting an apartment to financing a car tomorrow. The secret is knowing how to make credit work for you—not the other way around.
