"Credit 101" class in session

Hey Gabbers & Friends,
As you may already know, I will also be discussing the baffling world credit and credit reports along side Gwen. Hopefully our tag-team approach to credit 101 will spur each reader on a quest to develop the literacy needed to lead a healthy financial life style. With a running start, Gwen has laid a strong foundation for our shared topic. Next week I will take the baton and continue this momentum, as I attempt to prove that members of Generation Y can lead a culture of change, free of the enslavement of debt. Being the product of a capitalistic, consumer driven environment, I am a testament of "what and what not to do." From my personal credit history, mistakes, scams etc., like an open book, together we will explore my journey to financial literacy.

P.S. Check out http://www.freecreditreport.com/ I hear its a good source! I'll check it out too and tell you if it works!!!

Kim,
Heads up!!!!

I am glad you came across the website freecreditreport.com.

This site is actually sponsored by a credit bureau and will try to SELL you stuff that you don't necessarily need.

You can use www.AnnualCreditReport.com

This is the federally mandated portal to gain access to all three credit bureaus.

Check out the FreeCreditReport.com website in a little more detail (aka read the fine print) and let us know what it says!
