The ABCs of How to Build Your Credit Score & Why It Matters (reboot) | Marsha Barnes

01/22/21 • 45 min

Your credit score has power and that three-digit number has a dramatic impact on your financial future. If you do nothing else this year, grab your credit score the tail and yank it up to 700+ (preferably over 740). You don’t have to go all crazy trying for an 850 score – but don’t get lazy. Even if you have a good score, it could drop tomorrow by one silly mishap.

Marsha Barnes from The Finance Bar will share her best tips to get your score in check for the new year in this reboot episode.
