"Hi my name is Bill Rae, I'm with Alumni Financial Services out of Seminole, Florida, I've been in the business in the finance world for well over twenty five years. The topic today is how to start building a good credit. Now I'm going to take the assumption today that we are talking about a fresh start in life. Not someone who has gone through some difficulty and has to repair. So if you are just starting out and you are looking to build good credit it's important that you understand the basic building blocks of finance is always, always have a budget. Your home budget in other words. Make sure that it's a realistic a doable budget and make sure that you have, you are living within your means if you will. And what that means is make sure you have enough income to pay whatever obligations you have. Now if you are doing that, you've got a decent job, you are making payments on say rent and you got all those things and everything is under control. And you have extra income and you want to start building credit one of the best ways you can do it is to go to your local bank and put money in an account. Call it a secured and get a card or a credit card secured against that money. Make sure that you don't spend and carry a large balance on things you don't need. For instance, make gas payments, if you are buying gas for your car but pay it off at the end of the month. You are going to have to do that in today's environment for at least a good year or so before it has any impact on your credit. Or I should say any realistic impact. The other way you can do it is carefully apply to some department stores. Don't go running a whole bunch of inquiries and get a whole bunch of cards that you are not going to use. Only get credit that you are going to use and pay off in a timely manner. And that's the beginning of good credit. There's much more to learn, but that's a good start. My name is Bill Rae, I'm with Alumni financial services and always we are here to help you build true wealth."
