That’s exactly how I did mine too. I have never had good credit. Since I was young I never used money very well and credit was…well, what is credit? Not doable with the bad choices I had made. Now that I am 71 and I have worked very hard over the years and now I am debt free and own my own house. I keep one credit card and my car is paid for. I just got my credit score to 810. WOW! Don’t let those credit card companies fool you into accepting all those offers you will be getting in the mail either. I get 3 of them a day. But it’s great knowing that if I need it and my washer or car breaks down I have the good credit now to afford the new item. For that matter I can probably just buy the new washer with cash. But there was definitely a time that I couldn’t even think like that. Snowball’s work let me tell you.
