Not all credit scores are created equal, not even close. Did you know there are actually different types of credit scores?
Here are the 5 most popular types…
Hands down, FICO is the most popular type of credit score. It was first launched in 1958 and today, well over 90% of the largest lenders use it. All of the best credit cards and loans will take into account your FICO score when reviewing your application.
The FICO range is 300 to 850, but rarely will you find someone near the bottom or top. To put things in perspective, only 2% of Americans have a score between 300 and 499. And to be above 800 puts you in top 13%. The median is reportedly 723.
The credit bureaus have to pay Fair Isaac (the owners of FICO) to use their formula. So for that reason, they decided to join forces a few years ago and come up with another type of credit score – the VantageScore – but so far it hasnt gained much traction.
It runs on a 500 to 990 scale and every 100 points corresponds to a different letter grade; 500 to 600 = F, 601 to 700 = D, 701-900 = C, 801 to 900 = B, and 901 or higher = A. This he

0 Comments As a senior or an elderly person you know how important it can be to have life insurance at this point in your life. However one of the biggest reasons seniors dont have coverage is because they feel they cant get the coverage because they wont pass the medical exam.
The first thing to know about these policies is that you wont have to pass any medical exams such as blood test, saliva samples, and physicals. For seniors this is a big deal since they are much more prone to diseases, and accidents. In fact, as a former insurance agent I can tell you first hand that seniors will have to jump through a lot more hoops than someone in their 20s or early 30s.
For some this can just be quite overwhelming, this is why no medical term life was created. To give those who didnt want to go through all the issues and problems medical exams gave. On the other hand though just because you dont have to do any sort of medical exam doesnt mean you wont have to answer any questions.
For example, life insurance policies sponsored through the AARP are all no medical exam life insurance policies. In f

Are you tired of living a life of debt? Back several years ago I went though a life changing event right before Christmas. I too was living pay check to pay check at that time then something happened, my water softener went out. It was going to cost me a $1000 dollars to fix it.
I was able to cover the cost but it was going to leave me short on cash for Christmas. That year my wife and I struggled with are finances and thats when I decided I didnt want to live a life going from one pay check to the next but rather to living a debt free life once and for all.
From then on my goal was to persevere but their were challenges, the first being knowledge. At that time I knew nothing about how money worked or even the best way to pay off debt. In fact the extent of my knowledge was only good enough to get me by and that was it. For exa
