FICO has nothing to do with the World Cup

It’s kind of crazy when you are so far in debt, you have no idea how much money you actually have. Or even worse, how much money you actually owe.

We had an apartment in Vancouver, a couple of cars, a boat, a bunch of furniture, even clothes – all bought on consignment.

If we were to sit down with our bills to figure out what was what, we’d be lost. Who had the time for something like that?

Either way, one of the first things that Full Circle Debt Solutions did when they talked to me on the phone that day was ask me about my FICO score.

FICO? Beacon? Bacon? Six degrees of pain? Huh?

I had no idea what they were talking about – I thought they wanted to know if I was betting on Brazil.

Either way, it turns out that a FICO score is your credit score. It lets the bank – or anyone that you want to borrow money from – how reliable you are.

Now, I may have a lot of debt, but I always thought I was somewhat responsible.

Turns out that I was wrong. My FICO score was freakin’ terrible. 550. That is like debt hell.

I’ll post the list of what those scores mean in my next post.
