Especially one who's never had/managed money before. I remember when I got my first credit card - I thought it was the coolest thing ever, was showing it off to people. My XO pulled me aside and told me that I should never use the card unless I had enough money to pay for what I purchased. I thought he was a moron - what was the use of having a credit card then? Of course, it was some of the best advice I ever got. And by not listening to it I completely screwed myself over.
Only difference between me and these kids is that their irresponsibility is infinitely more spectacular.
