I'm sorry.

Personally, it has been incredibly hectic.  It's been one of those weeks where I've done so much work yet it seems like I've accomplished nothing at the same time.

I didn't think of this much until I sent out the article about credit scores and job hunting a few weeks ago.  In case you missed it, the article is here.

Sure enough, I've been helping someone who was recently laid off from a long time position in IT.

Obviously, money is important right now for him and his family, and stretching that dollar is priority number 1.

By using an optimal debt strategy, he was actually able to reduce his overall payments and still pay off sooner than he would have.  This will improve his credit score over time.

It's not a gimmick.  It's math.  And it's more important for those in transition as it help stretch those precious dollars.

No articles this week.  But next week, I'll be back on my regular schedule.

Have a great week!  Let me know how I can be of help.
