Answer #1

A MuchMusic Prepaid Mastercard is a good idea. You need to be 16 to get one, there is a start-up fee, and they require two legal documents to prove your age/legitimacy (ie: birth certificate, driver’s license, etc), but it’s relatively easy to get and maintain.

Answer #2

Stick with the cash. Only can spend what you have on hand. Credit cards just get you in trouble.

Answer #3

my mom and dad gave me a credict card when I was 9 and I was a visa master card…but I had to get an account created to activte it

Answer #4

Answer #5
