I want to build my credit. The problem is, I have no job. I am a mom and a wife and most of our credit cards are my husbands. I would really like to get my own card (even if its a super low line) without him, but how do I do that?

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
I myself got a Capital One card to build my non existant credit. It was and is a low line (started at 300 then went up to 500), but with the low line, it makes it easy to pay off fast. Your intrest rate may be very high at first, but what I did to bring mine down was only put under 100 on it then turn around and pay it off before it was due. In like two months my APR dropped by 5%. You can also try other cards, but I like Capital One because there are no fees attached. You only pay back what you speant (with the APR if the due amount sits there, just like most others).
You can also get a department store one. Most places though are willing to give you a tiny amount to help you out with your credit. They all know you gotta start somewhere!
Good luck!
