Credit
Credit makes life in the United States much, much easier. Credit cards are major pieces of identification. You will have difficulty renting a car without a credit card. You will need to establish a good credit history to rent an apartment, get any kind of loan, begin telephone or utility service without a deposit, and for many other purposes. With credit cards, you won't have to carry cash around. But getting and maintaining good credit takes care.
