LOL you remind me of the guy in Set Theory class I took all those years ago in college who got an 86 on the exam when everyone else go in the 30's and 40's. He remarked that he "only" got an 86.
Seriously, once in the 800's, I would expect scores to be static and in about 2.5 years, I will have that "problem" also.

Imagine you check your scorewatch alert by email and it says your score has decreased and you ask yourself from what, nothings changed . so you log on and noticed your score dropped from 740 to 550......what the heck!!! a fraudulent collection has posted, then your alarm sounds and you wake up.....
LOL...you're thinking about credit too much. I went through the rebuilding process over the summer. It took 2 months after I got the last baddies deleted before my mind eased. Rebuilding credit is a piece of work.

lol I remember for two years 07-09 i was so score conscience that it affected so much of my life that it seems like i was a prisoner of the credit game until the death of my mother gave me a reality check. My credits great now(low util and no baddies) and I enjoy buying things that i want without the feeling of worrying about losing points and all and now find it humorous on how I used to be when I check my scores once a month and leave. but one thing's is certain is at I love these forums and the quality of people who post here helping people out.
