As of 12:54 pm CDT this afternoon, I no longer have any credit card debt.

It only took me 13 years to pay it off. LOL I opened both accounts in early 1995 (during first year of college – second half […]

A couple years ago, I got my credit report for the first time, thanks to AnnualCreditReport.com. It’s nice to be able to check it out and not have to pay for it. Last year when I got my report, I decided to spread them out, since you can get the report from the 3 spots (TransUnion, Experian, Equifax). No sense in getting all 3 at once.
