Hi, I am a sophomore in college and a member FIRST Robotics Cyber Blue Team 234. I have absolutely no credit and not much money. I have been thinking about taking out a loan so that I can buy a Segway and slowly pay it off over time. Has anybody else done this? I know that amazon.com offers financing but the interest rate looks outragous.

Should I try to take out a loan to get a brand new one or used one? And I want the "i series".


Thanks for your help :)

Digital Credit Union offers a Segway loan. And there's always tons of credit card companies eager to give college students their first card. You could find a low interest rate card with a favorable introductory period, pick up a summer job near your folks, and pay it off by the time school starts up again.


Good luck,

Mark

Segway-more fun than you can stand!
