Elder Robert D. Hales
Elder Robert D. Hales, a member of the church's Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, encouraged this year's graduates of Brigham Young University to avoid going into debt.
Elder Hales told the crowd in the Marriott Center for Thursday's (April 27, 2006) commencement rites they should perform "plastic surgery" on their credit cards. Unless you can pay off the balance every month, he told graduates, the plastic cards should be cut up and discarded.
"If you had to go into debt to obtain your education, I encourage you to repay your debts as soon as possible," he said. "Then go forward with commitment not to finance on credit any item of any kind, except perhaps a house and vehicle that are well within your means."

Elder Hales is such a special guy. To see just how special, google "Robert Hales Apostle" and hit "I'm feeling lucky".
