Whatever brought you here, take a moment to consider a few facts:

• The average age at which a U.S. consumer under the age of 35 first adopted a credit card is 20.8 years. The average age of credit card adoption for a consumer over the age of 65 is 40.6 years. (Source: "The 2008 Survey of Consumer Payment Choice," Federal Reserve Bank of Boston)
• Average APR on credit card with a balance on it: 13.10 percent, as of May 2011 (Source: Federal Reserve's G.19 report on consumer credit, released July 2011)
• Making minimum monthly payments on a $5,000 credit card debt at 14 percent APR would take you 22 years to pay off. You’d pay over $5,887 in interest - so $10,887 in total. The same debt could be paid off in 6 years by increasing your monthly payment to $125 - and you’d save over $4,000 in interest.
• 76 percent of undergraduates have credit cards, and the average undergrad has $2,200 in credit card debt. Additionally, on average, they will accumulate almost $20,000 in student debt. (Source: Nellie Mae, "Undergraduate Students and Credit Cards in 2004: An Analysis of Usage Rates and Trends")
