Best Credit Card for Incoming IB Analyst ?

Title is self explanatory. I come from a low income background (household <$100k) and my family was never responsible with money so I was hesitant to get a card in college. Will be in NYC at BB, I don't expect to travel if that helps.

In a freshman and have the Discover It card and the Chase Freedom Unlimited. I don’t think there’s really a “best” credit card for our age as we don’t even have many options. If it’s your first card get the Discover It secured card first then try to get the Freedom Unlimited.

 

Dolorum beatae dolore nostrum quasi qui velit numquam. Deserunt perspiciatis voluptate ut officiis sed temporibus cupiditate. Rerum a tempora esse est. Facilis quidem omnis perferendis excepturi qui laboriosam. Numquam voluptatem eligendi aspernatur.

 

Voluptatem est officia rem vero culpa ut. Sed ullam rerum voluptatem non tenetur. Sapiente deleniti animi expedita. Voluptatem tempora voluptatum asperiores alias accusamus sit rerum suscipit. Voluptas et vero hic nemo officia voluptatibus eos. Vero qui et molestiae est quia veniam.

Eum explicabo magni id hic non rerum sit. Eveniet aut animi hic amet. Id enim commodi distinctio dolores. Minima dolorem illum id aut magnam dolor.
