Encouragement

I just wanted to post some words of encouragement.  I started working on my and my DH's credit on Sept 28,07.  I have worked really hard and at many, many times, I thought about just giving up.    My results have not been as signifcant as my DH but I didn't have as much to work on.  My husbands HIGHEST score starting out was 432. Well today, Nov 9,07 Just over 1 month later I am happy to report that his highest score is now 609 and his lowest score is 552!  This forum has proven to be invaluable in this whole process.  Thank you to everyone that has answered my questions.  Now, I think it is time for me to start focusing on my credit a little bit more.  I already posted this message in the success stories but that thread is really long so I wanted to put it out where people could see it.  I'm not posting this info to brag; I just want people to keep up their hard work, it really does pay off.
 
P.S. Just this morning I thought about giving this all up as some results came back "verified" but I pulled the scores a little while ago and have decided to not give up, but to turn up the heat a little more.  Smiley Happy

Re: Encouragement

nfg,
 
I've had a few days off lately and have probably spent too much time her, BUT, I have noticed that you are constantly asking ?'s and trying to figure out your best course of action and I, for one, think you deserve a big hand!!! I wish I was clever enough to to use the appropriate graphics for you but I can't so, there ya go. Keep up what you've been doing and you will get results, if you can be patient. I know, patience is the hardest part of this game but I'm certain you can do it.
 
Good Luck

Re: Encouragement

Jackg,
 
Yep, this site has been extremely helpful and I can't thank the people who have responded to me enough.  I have spent countless hours on this site, and every so often I do hit with several questions at once then do my work and wait.  I used to be afraid to ask questions but realize now, this is the only way I'm gonna learn.
