Credit Risk News

I’m debating this with my boyfriend.
He says that if he has bad credit, and I have good credit, and we get married, his bad credit will not affect me at all.
I say that when we’re married ,we share money, so any monetary problems HE has become monetary problems WE have.
Is he right, or am I?
OH, my boyfriend doesn’t have bad credit, we’re just giving a hypothetical situation! =P

I had some trouble with credit cards in the past and it’s all catching up with me now. I would like to get a loan to pay off all of my debt so I can start fresh again. I have a full-time job and I just want to get my credit back on track. It’s not that easy when you have bad credit, because nobody will approve you for a loan. Are there any places that give loans to people like me?

I am going to be taking the Basic Law Enforcement Training program this year. I should be done in December, so hopefully I’ll be finding a job around early January.

Anyway, I currently have bad credit. 545 score to be exact. I have heard it’s very difficult to become an officer with bad credit so I am seriously considering filing bankruptcy. I have heard it takes around 6 months and your credit will be as good as new and thus, hopefully I would be able to get a job as a police officer.

So, does anyone know if this is the best way to go about it?

Thank you for any information.

I am currently going through a divorce and one of the main reasons I am divorcing my soon to be ex is that he has ruined me financially. My house is foreclosing and I need to find an apartment between Dighton, Ma and Bridgewater, Ma. Here’s my problem. My credit since I have been married is terrible. I am very dependable and have been at the same job for almost 8 years. I can provide personal and professional references and pay a few months rent in advance if need be. What can I do? People with bad credit have to live somewhere, right? Help.. I don’t want to end up homeless. Any ideas or suggestions would be great.

I’m just wondering if there is anyone on here who has gotten a good apartment in a complex even with bad credit. I’m taking a teaching job far from my home town, and I need an apartment. However, my credit score is low and I’ve never rented before. Does anyone know if I can offer a bigger deposit or anything like that if my credit doesn’t check out? Any success stories on here?
I’m not looking for a dumpy place. I’d like something in a complex.

I have only owned old cars that were passed on to me by my father. I have never actually went to a dealership and bought a car before. I feel trapped! The car I have now is falling apart! My parents and friends eathier have no credit or bad credit, but mostly just bad credit. So there is no way I can get a co-signer! I called a credit union today and they also said they couldn’t help me. So I am confused. My father has purchased all of his cars through a credit union… Can someone please help me?!
& yes, Kia rejected me also!
