Well, the wife and I are preparing to but our first home. In order to get our financial affairs in order, we have been working with a credit counselor. She'* real cool. Any way, we were talking about different business and how word of mouth can help or kill a business. She then began to tell us about the bad service her husband got at the local Pontiac stealership.
Come to find out, he drives a 2000 SSEi. I couldn't get a card out of my wallet fast enough.
So, hope he checks us out.
She was telling us a little about the problem, I am sure you guys and gals can help.
Oh, yeah and plus, I am now DEBT free except for every day living expenses and student loans. Just paid off the old balances this morning.

Yeah, it kinda worked out. When I got the credit cards the credit wasn't great so they had low limits. I was able to pay them off with the income tax refund, and buy the new computer and still have some to put in savings.

Woot, nothing like being debt free.
Heck the day to day bills are more than enough

^ So true. Getting by though. Now just have to wait for everything to come off the credit report. Then we can start looking. Gonna sign a 6 month lease since my current one expires at the end of this month. Then, hopefully we'll be homeowners.
