A New Spin on DIY: Do-It-Yourself Credit Repair!

These days, we hear a lot about DIY. Everywhere you turn, it's DIY home repair, DIY interior design, DIY electronics repair (unless you're an electrician, I'm gonna advise you to stay away from that one!), and the list goes on and on. But what about that little four letter word that haunts most of us at one time or another?

D-E-B-T.

Yep, debt. If we don't handle our debts exactly the right way or run into some sort of financial troubles, our credit can suffer and then we'll have bad credit. So many people are suffering needlessly from the stigma of bad credit, and from all the other problems that go along with having bad credit. You can't buy a new car when you need one. You can't get a loan for a house when you find the perfect place. You can't get a credit card. Or how about this: You can't get a job! With many employers running credit checks as part of the pre-employment screening process, your bad credit could disqualify you completely from certain jobs and take points away from your otherwise good record. This is a good enough reason alone to take the bull by the horns and clean up that credit.

And you truly can do it yourself. Lynn Carnes and I have teamed up on this one and have several articles on the WomenCorp site to get you started. Check out our Squidoo lens, too.

If you're ready to get started right away, just go here, read the information, and you'll be on your way to a brand new life. The kind of good life that awaits you when you have good credit! Here's to your fabulous future!

Hi Roxanne,

Just wanted to say that I've started reading your blog. I'm wondering if you have heard about the book, "What Men Don't Tell Women About Business". I heard the guy (Chris Flett) on the Today Show and thought you probably have already heard of him. I'm wondering what your thoughts were. He seems to be really taking on the 'Old Boys Club". I just emailed him, but haven't heard back.

Anyway, keep up the great writing.

Best,

Bihter.

Hi Roxanne,

I've been doing some additional research on the author, Chris Flett, that I talked about on my last comment. His company is "GhostCEO" (www.GhostCEO.com) and his book is a bestseller. I found it on Amazon here. Anyway, he was in the NY Times last Sunday under the "Career Couch" and he makes reference to women's blogs like yours so I thought you might like to connect. I'd like to see you interview him and see what he's all about. I saw on another blog he was a guest blogger. His email is: chris@ghostceo.com

Best wishes,

Bihter.

Be aware of the fraud credit repair company as the just do advertisement to make fool of others. If a credit repair company blames a set up fee, they cannot get that fee until and after the task of setting up your case has been finished. If a credit repair company is charging monthly fees, it also can not collected by them until the services have been provided....credit repair
