<prompt> Human: I currently work and make about 350-400 per month. Im looking for tips to begin building credit history, and advice to avoid any pitfalls first-time cardholders make.  <response>: Establish good habits and good attitudes:Do not think being in possession of a credit card is the same thing as having more money. Do not think that running up your credit card bill helps you build a better credit history. Dont put stuff on the card you wouldnt have purchased anyway buying needless stuff for the points is a fools strategy. Do not put purchases on your card if you dont have the funds in your checking account already also accounting for previous CC purchases you havent paid off yet.Dont buy random crap for other people to show off.Do pay off the entire balance each month, not just the minimum.
