I plan on saving 10k before 2017 ends so I can pay 1/5 of my tuition bill. 

Spend less time at the casino so I can save even more LOL

Pay off my best buy card by April 2017

Start saving money for a house or even an investment property like a duplex

Game Grrrl,

Excellent goals! If you don't mind me asking, How long did it take you to raise your scores?

Don't mind at all! Six years ago this month, I came to MyFICO. I knew next to nothing about credit scores other than mine sucked.

I believe at that point, my scores were in the mid to high 500s. I had a student loan defaults and a public record for a medical bill. Things improved pretty quickly, once I started paying attention. Two things were key factors: No more late payments/defaults, and be patient for bad stuff to fall off. I think it took about  three years for my scores to be really decent (700+). I've been a very careful caretaker for my credit since then, and continue to see rewards in my scores. Good luck to you!

I'd like to add #4 and #5 to that list which is to increase my income and re-open a retirement account.
