Extra Credit -- Beyond Credit cards

I have presented to you in class a brief video that went over the basics of credit cards and I went over a Powerpoint with the history, vocabulary terms and rules of how to establish good credit.
Now I want you to find a recent article (from 2010 to the present) that relates to credit cards or credit in general.  It needs to be from a well-known newspaper (i.e. The New York Times, Miami Herald, USA Today, etc.)  It doesn't have to be from the physical newspaper, you can get it from their online website.

Once you have selected an article you will:
A. Print it out
B. Write a summary about it (focusing on the aspects of credit and how it relates to that topic) and
C. Give me your overall opinion about whether this information is useful to you or not.

In order to receive the extra credit points you must present your article to your period on Tuesday, March 11 (periods 2,4,6) or Wednesday, March 12 (periods 1,3,5)!  You can not present during another period.
