What is the Great Credit? | Introduction of Great Credit
When Robert Kiyosaki failed an English class in high school, his Rich Dad
reminded him that his banker had never asked for his report card. His point
wasn’t that education is not important, but that your grades in school won’t
determine how much wealth you build over your lifetime.
There is a report card, though, that’s much more important to your financial
life than the one you receive in school. And that’s your credit report. Instead of “A”s
or “D”s, your grade on that credit report will be a number: your credit score.
Your credit reports and scores play a strong role in:
- How much do you pay for credit cards, mortgages, auto loans, and even some
business loans?
- Whether you’re able to borrow (hopefully for good debt) when you need to.
- The rates you pay for your auto or homeowner’s insurance.
- How easy it is to get utility services, cell phone accounts, and many other
services.
In this article and the next two, I am going to explain how credit reports and
credit scores work, your rights, and most importantly how to maximize your
credit to get the best deals.
If you have “bad” credit, don’t get discouraged. Credit winners won’t use
bad credit as an excuse to avoid moving forward with their wealth-building
efforts and neither should you. You can get to work improving it as soon as
you’ve read this post. In the meantime, you may just have to be a little more
creative.
If you want to buy real estate, for example, you can look for “hard money”
loans, where the value of the property is what matters, not your credit. If you are
starting a business, you can search out partners or shoestring it while you
improve your credit. In other words, work on your credit, but don’t let your
credit stop you from reaching your goals.
Also, think for yourself, and don’t be swayed by fair-weather friends…

Donna was everyone’s friend. She was the one who could be counted on to help
a friend in need, be it moving into a new place, a late-night trip to the emergency
room, or lending a few dollars here and there until payday.
Donna valued her circle of friends. They were very important to her. She
wasn’t married and didn’t have any family in the area. She enjoyed their
company and believed that they enjoyed hers.
Donna did the posts for a painting contractor. She was saving every month
towards buying a house. She wanted her own cozy little home in the worst way.
She wasn’t sure she would ever get married and wanted at least the security of a
place to call her own.
Then Lars came to work in the business. He was a tall, distinguished-looking
man in his late 40’s. He was hired as a business development executive for the
contractor owners, who wanted to line up more jobs with government agencies
and larger businesses. Lars was a good salesman and he took a liking to Donna.
She enjoyed the attention.
One evening over dinner, Lars asked Donna if he could discuss a car problem
he was having. Always ready to lend an ear and help wherever needed, Donna
insisted that he discuss the problem.
Lars explained that he was looking to purchase a new Dodge Durango. It
would help him in the business, but he was stuck on the financing. His ex-wife
had run up a large number of bills on a joint credit card and the credit card
company was coming after him for her shopping sprees. In order to finance the
car, he needed to have a co-signer involved, due to his suddenly poor credit
score. Lars wondered whom Donna might suggest.
Ever the friend, Donna indicated that she could co-sign. She did the posts
and knew how much Lars was earning. There could never be a problem with him
paying a $300-per-month car payment.
Lars insisted that he was not asking Donna to sign, he was merely inquiring
as to whom she thought he should ask to co-sign. Donna then insisted that Lars
look no further. She thought she should co-sign. She was willing to help Lars
because she trusted him and she prided herself on helping her friends in need.
Lars was very appreciative. The next day after work they went to the
dealership and signed the papers for the new Dodge Durango. As Donna was
sitting down to sign, the credit manager asked her if she understood the
consequences of what she was signing. He explained that if Lars didn’t make the
payments for any reason Donna would become responsible for them. Donna
acknowledged this as she co-signed for the Durango. She knew Lars’ character and income. There wouldn’t be a problem.
Lars drove the truck off the lot. Donna followed in her car. They went to the
nicest restaurant in town to celebrate. When Lars tried to pay for the meal on his
credit card, it was rejected. He grumbled again at his ex-wife’s profligate ways
as Donna paid for dinner.
In the next few weeks, Lars seemed to drift away from Donna. He wasn’t as
attentive or flirtatious. She thought it was due to the increased pressures of the
job. With the new Durango, he was probably making a better impression and
thus was even busier. Donna didn’t worry about it too much, although she did
miss the attention.
Then, one Monday, Lars failed to come to work. Everyone thought he was
sick. One of the painters joked that he probably had the “bourbon flu,” since he
had seen Lars drinking heavily on Saturday night.
Tuesday, Wednesday … still no Lars. No calls to him were answered, so on
Thursday one of the owners went over to Lars’ apartment. The manager said he
had cleared out late Saturday night without notice. Monies were owed, and if
Lars was found the building manager wanted notice of his whereabouts. On
Friday, Donna got a call from the auto-finance company. Lars had missed his
first payment on the Durango. They wanted her to cover it the next day.
Donna was shocked and dismayed. She had tried to help a friend. How could
this happen? She made the first payment, hoping that Lars would turn up or call,
or somehow take responsibility for the remaining payments.
Two months and two payments later, Donna got her answer. The Durango
was found, totaled, in a ditch, a thousand miles away. Lars was in jail for driving
under the influence and vehicular manslaughter. He claimed he didn’t
remember a thing.
Lars had also let his insurance lapse. He had no money. Pursuant to the co-
the signed agreement, the auto-finance company sought payment for the entire
vehicle and other costs from Donna. They demanded tens of thousands of dollars
from her immediately.
Donna had to go deep into debt to pay off the Durango. In all, she lost her
nest egg and savings for her long-awaited home purchase. Her credit score was
so negatively affected she had to put off buying a home for what seemed like an
eternity.
