A Good Financial Plan Started With a Free Credit Score

July 4th, 2009 by admin

My son Sandy kept complaining that he had no money but also resisted my efforts to help.  He insisted he was working with a budget.  But, not only was he usually broke, but his truck was on its last legs. The day eventually came when he needed to finance a new vehicle, and he asked my advice.  I told him to start with a Free Credit Score.  Once he found that he actually had a decent score, he budgeted, got his truck, and negotiated payments he could afford.  Now that he has learned a little about debt management, he really does have a working budget.
