I just wanted to introduce myself a little. I have been up and down the credit roller coaster over the years, had great credit suffered a job loss and made very bad choices. Filed for BK back in 2005 went through the rebuilding stage, once again job loss and a few more bad choices but  paid back almost all of it and laid low for a few years. I have been rebuilding my credit and have been doing ok,  but can always use some advice and encouragementSmiley Happy

 

I have been reading these boards for the last few days and I must say you all seem very friendly, knowledgeable and not judgemental. I think I am going to enjoy this board. I had frequented a few "other" boards in the past, some are gone and some have changed and not for the good LOL. 

 

I am just going to continue reading for a bit and will start posting my journey and seeking adviceSmiley Happy
