re: Artificially inflated credit scores are starting to drop nationwide

Cause your credit score is not how good you are about paying your debts , it’s about how well you play Kissyface with the banks. Remember your credit score is managed by companies who are owned by the banks therefore, the banks wanna know how much interest they can safely make off of you.

I’m in Your boat as well. 790. Why? No debt . I own my car. I own my own home. Banks don’t like me all that much.

Eta: I will say it’s crazy to borrow money and think you don’t have to pay it back.

Meh. It’s been “escalating” forever; yet the battles lines have not moved.

The military industrial complex is loving this as they are getting a live fire battleground field to do all of their R&D work on
