These are very small pieces of plastic, which a first glance don't appear any use to you at all whether vegetation, animal or mineral. In fact nothing could be farer from the truth (apart from the other side of the universe - or is it - temporal physics and all that...) well back to credit cards, they allow the user with the simplest of easy to buy goods, services, friends, watches, second hand nuclear weapons and even small countries. With their production when asked for payment. All the recipient will need is your signature, whether your name is on the card or not!
There are many ways to go about getting a credit card: stealling one, buying one, applying for one, BUT, by far the most simple way is to do NOTHING! In time the companies that supply them will probably just send you one!! Don't apply for one!! You will never get one! I have applied for two, and have never got one!! I am just going for computer error to send me one, which it will given time.
