1. Establish enough history to generate a FICO score.

2. Get my 1 account established a bit more, then app for AMEX BCE to try lock in 2014 MSD

3. Chase Freedom also looks interesting. Possibly app at same time as AMEX

4. GARDEN MY NEW TLs (hopefully! )

My goal for 2014 and 2015 is to decrease the cc debt for my wife and I and let our accounts age. We have about 25k in cc debt and took a aaoa beating when we applied for bt cards.

There's actually a forum with this and it has monthly check ins.  The title may throw you, because it's "Take the FICO Fitness Challenge"  I just joined last month and I'm ahead in my goals.  My goals were: 1) Increase my FICO score to 760-850; 2) buy a house near my kids(keeping current home as rental; 3)get pre-approved for a home loan by 11/2014.

I had to change one goal from being pre-approved for a home loan to finding a home and closing. I'm now pre-approved for home loan and my EX FICO Bankcard score is now 808.  I have to wait till mid June to find out scores for other two, but I know in a few more months I'll at least have them moving in right direction and I feel I'm on the right track.

1. Chase Freedom CLI(really low limit right now)

2. Discover IT CLI

3. FICO score over 740

4. Cut student loan debt in half

Not sure I'll be doing anymore apps this year, I need to take a chunk out of my student loan debt. I am consolidating my loans through my state bank though, taking the interest rate from around 6% for most of my loans down to 1.75%. It is a great deal for North Dakota residents.

They have to bribe people like you and me to live here somehow! With this last winter they need to up their justification.

My goals are:

1) Let my AAoA grow.
2) Fix my husbands credit.
3) Get approved for a home loan.

Best of Luck on everyone's goals! :-)

FICO Fitness Challenge yo!

You know, I wonder if we should just move that into Gen Cred, we're only talking at most 13 threads a year and it'd be better to be in a more commonly used board.
