Re: Garden Club - March 2016

I'm just wondering thru the garden to trade my shappire spade for a diamond one. My last inquiry,

for Sallie Mae, fell off on March 5. Two years with no apps done Smiley Happy.

 

I don't think I'm leaving the garden anytime soon, but eventually I will. I'm on schedule to pay off

my mortgage within 4 years and I'll need to get a shared secured loan to replace it for scoring prior

to it showing payed off. I need either a CSP or Ink to act as a transfer method for the UR points I

have stacked up on my freedom and ink cash. Neither of those is immediately pressing, so I'll coast

along in the garden.

 

The funny thing about gardening is that while it does improve your credit report, it also  makes the

urge to use the improved credit report diminish.

I think once you get past a certain point with gardening, you just kind of lose interest in apping. Not everyone does, but it seems once you get past a few months, it becomes easier. You just adjust to using what you have and not constantly looking for the next great card.

I totally agree with this but there is something odd that happenes when you finally do app. My app wasn't even a card, it was for a mortgage and it still feels like i'm starting all over again with the jonesing for a card.
