    So after my credit was ruined by my ex I decided to try and build some credit. I was really wanting a 3rd gen or a 5th gen. The 3rd gen was too old and the 5th gen the payment was way too high with my credit score :(. So I happen to find a 4th gen at the Chevy dealership in the town I grew up in. It’s a V6 auto with 206k miles with a really low payment I can build credit with this the Credit Builder build lol

    Except some jobs now have credit checks and your credit score is a factor. I have a few cards I use for every thing, collect my money back and pay them off monthly. And I’m not sure about you, but most need credit to buy a house.

    I know how this globalist system is evolving! Studies show that if you use you CC but you pay it off every month you still spend more as opposed to paying with cash.
