This $30 DRESS worn in the intro was given to me as a GIFT from my awesome sponsors Iklektikk (pronounced “eclectic”) I call it my birthday dress because it arrived on my b-day and I had SO much fun wearing it. Visit their site at www.iklektikk.com Cute reasonably priced clothing. Sign up for their mailing list for updates on newly added items Sorry no home tour for this one.

I hope my candid advice will provide guidance and inspiration for the young (and older too!). You CAN avoid financial traps by educating yourself and if you become derailed, you CAN get back on track.

Free Triple Credit Report

Bill Smithson asked:




As you have possibly heard, there is a way to get a copy of your Experian credit report, Transunion credit report, and Equifax credit report completely free. Those commercials with the catchy tunes advertising your Free Credit Report are only telling you half the truth, though. They will gladly give you a copy of your credit report, but they require you to sign up for their Triple Advantage Credit Monitoring Service.

This costs $9.99 per month, and is absolutely unnecessary. Don’t let yourself get sucked into their scheme as they suck the money from your wallet. Yes, you can access your credit reports whenever you want, but you are stuck with that monthly charge until you decide to unsubscribe. Many people don’t realize that they are signing up for this, though, so untold millions of people are trapped into paying this monthly fee and don’t even know it.

Don’t let yourself get hooked into this trap. Get the knowledge that you need in order to stay on top of your credit without making your situation worse. The site at the end of this article will show you everything you need to know to take control of your credit. It really is possible to get your credit reports for free, and without signing up for a monthly service.

With the right strategy, you can get copies of your free, and easily get the credit bureaus to remove bad and erroneous data on your reports. It really isn’t that difficult, and with the right guidance you’ll learn enough to save you thousands of dollars in reduced interest that would have been paid with a lower credit score.
