Just hit 701 credit score!

Next week I am getting my 6months back pay from a large sale we made.

Will be paying off a car loan in full
And paying off my credit card

I should hit 740 maybe even 750 range


For context

I started my credit journey at 450 four years later I have good credit

I’ve paid off nearly 35 k in debt never missed one payment

Paying off cc will help. Paying off car will slightly negatively impact it in the short term, but will show up as better dti in longer scale.

Good job brah. How do you even accumulate $35k in debt, or better yet, how do you pay that off?

Fuark how do you even get yourself into 35k debt? Brah never buy things you can't afford, even if your CC says you can.

Good job on paying it off tho.

Nice man. I was knocking on 700’s door this summer, but an overdraft hit dipped me back into the 670s. It will be a celebration crossing that magic number for sure.

Keep it up!

Look into Velocity banking, OP and everyone else in this thread. A real straight method to fixing credit and not sacrificing lifestyle too much. Works wonders for credit scores
