Excited about 109 point jump!

I filed for Ch 7 bankruptcy in Dec. 2012.  At around that time my fico score was 438.  I was discharged on April 11.  I just checked my score and it is now 547.  So excited.  I opened up two secured personal loans with state department federal credit union and am in the process of opening two secured cards with navy federal.  Then I will pay and watch my score continue to rise.  All debt has been properly reflected as included in bankruptcy.  Very excited.

It's been such a long, hard road.  Can't wait to hit 600.  Oh happy day.

Grats man, been in your shoes.  (I once was at 415 a long time ago!)  Time heals all wounds. Keep grinding!
