The economy isn't exactly great right now. Before, any 18 year old could apply and be approved for a low line of credit. Now, I just turned 18, but no bank is willing to approve me for a credit card. I am self employed with a steady income of $50,000+ / yr. I have substantial amounts of $$ in my bank account and have no loans/debts. My parents have great credit scores, somewhere around 780. All I want is a credit card with any line of credit, even $200-$300, just to build my credit score. Please, if anyone has experience with this, please let me know. Building credit is just not as easy as it was before 
Thanks in advanced.
