Financial-services companies often punish the young.
If you’re 25 or under, you’re likely to have a short credit history, few assets and a load of student-loan and credit-card debt. As a result, young people typically struggle to get decent rates on credit cards, mortgages, car insurance and personal loans, just to name a few.
For all the financial downers, however, we figured there had to be some rewards—some stuff specifically discounted for the 25-and-under crowd.
Here’s what we found. Please help us round this one out to an even ten–leave a comment and tell us if we’ve missed any.
1. Theater tickets: Theaters like the Round House in Washington, D.C., South Coast Repertory in Costa Mesa, Calif., NYC Opera in New York City, Intiman theater in Seattle, Wa. and Washington Shakespeare Company in Arlington, Va. offer discounted tickets to people 25 and under. Tickets can be as cheap as the price of a movie. Check if your local theater does the same.
