NY TIMES ARTICLE

I don't know how to put the link on here, but if you google  Credit-Card message boards New York Times you will find it.

 

Maybe a computer savvy person can come along and put the link up.

I assume you are referring to this article:

 

Mod Cut!

 

We cannot post links that connect to credit repair sites. The article posted has a link to a credit repair site, credit boards. Thank you for your understanding.

Re: NY TIMES ARTICLE

Hey Stan the Man - IDK if it was the same article or not.  Was it funny?  If so, it probably was.

 

Anyway, sorry it had a link to a credit repair company.  I am very against those companies, too!!

 

Love, Boone

Looks like the link has been removed.  I find no link on the NY Times article pointing to CB now.

Thanks.  I was confused.

 

I found it now and it is kind of funny.  I think we can copy & paste the whole article since we cannot link to it just as long as we attribute the article to the NY Times.  Any guidance on that idea?

 

Oh, also funny how they mention one of our own poster's sig line.  Smiley Wink

 

"Oh, but Credit Card Forum is not the only message board of its kind. Not even close. Boisterous online hangouts for credit lovers abound. Their dull, interchangeable names — Credit Boards, Fico Forums, CreditNet — conceal the passion, fury, ingenuity, magical thinking and staggering greed that define these uneasy places."
