Credit Basics 101

Welcome to my thoughts and perceptions on credit in today's economy. Not all of us are fortunate enough to have a good credit rating (score). With the economy in a down turn and good jobs very scarce many have resulted in a higher unemployment rate, bankruptcy, and not to mention foreclosures. It is no wonder that our economic outlook is bleak. Many Americans are faced with damaged credit and now must pay a higher unreasonable rate to even obtain the credit that they can get. Is this really fair? No, by no means, however this is the way our society functions ang prospers both in good and bad times.

I wanted to share a credit basics 101 with you and help you understand thatbeing down now can be short lived and there are ways to fix your credit.
