The Economics of the citibank Classic Visa card. How Student Discounts and Price Protection Contribute tO Upward grOWtll. A variety of factors have been suggested as contributing to the economic growth of students, including (1) more lottery winners between the ages of 18 and 22, (2) a 37% increase on earnings from bottle and can returns, (3) more students doubling earnings in the lightning round of game shows, and (4) the Citibank Classic Visa® card. It's this last one, however, that affects most students. H The Citibank Classic Visa card offers immediate savings to student cardmembers. ^u can save up to 26% on long distance calls versus AT&T with the free Citibank Calling Service™ from MCI.1 And you can capitalize on a $20 Airfare Discount for domestic flights.2 Savings on mail order pur- chases, sports equipment, magazines and music also abound. Maximize these savings with a low variable interest rate of 15.4%3 and no annual fee, and you can significantly improve your personal bottom line (especially if one's net income tends No known picture of Washington smiling exists.
