Per Brian's recommendation to make multiple payments on a credit card that you normally pay in full before the due date, there is another way that is also effective. Find out what your statement cycle is. Eg, the 5th of the month to the 4th of the following month with a due date of 3 weeks after that, say the 25th. Pay your card down or completely in full the day before the statement cycle posts; in this example, the 3rd of every month. This tricks the bureaus into thinking you never used the card. Oh...and make sure your cards pay you cash rewards and do not charge an annual fee. ❤

Great information except for one thing. If you are trying to save the interest charges or keep your utilization rate down, you need to make a payment to your credit card no less than 3 days in advance of the statement date. Most people do not know what the statement date is. It's sometimes hard to find on your statement, but this is the date where the interest is charged and the date the credit card company reports to the bureau's.

Didn’t know 720 was the threshold for super-prime. Sitting at around 705 right now and getting ready to pay off my zero% APR cards soon

Brian, my credit score has modestly moved between 800 & 840 over the past 10 yrs; 73 yrs old now; my simple formula is no debt, pay credit card balance every month, enjoy life; I lease a condo; and don’t even bother to balance my checkbook (ok, well, I hardly write any checks). Thanks for your thorough reporting.

Not really. The best credit is no credit. Cash is king.

Thanks for the video man. I watched 'til the end just because it resonated so much and really helped reinforce the ideas I vaguely had about it all. It's a rough journey for the build it back team.

It's important to know the term manual underwriting. Equally as important is becoming invisible or a 0 score

Nice presentation. By the way late payments on utilities aren't reported so they don't affect your credit score.

As far as paying your monthly balance you should always pay before the date which ends your billing cycle not your due date which is the last date you can pay before accumulating interest, after the date of the end of your billing cycle is when your owed amount is submitted to the credit bureau so paying it off before then will reflect in your report.
