If you have been wanting to learn more about credit, then this is the day. It is annual Get Smart About Credit Day.
Originally put together to teach young adults and teenagers about getting credit and being responsible with it. This day has turned into a day that is used by banks and employers along with schools.
It is a fact that most Americans can't go through life without some type of credit. We need it for a place to live; a car to drive; to pay for airline tickets and in some cases even to pay for food. So, it is important that we use our credit wisely.
The banks and lenders are all tightening up the restrictions on obtaining new credit. So, it is now more important than ever to know where you stand. If you need to know what your current credit scores look like, you can check with the major credit bureaus.
Get Smart About Credit Day is a great day to focus on:
- Teaching your clients about how a credit works.
- How a credit score is calculated.
- The credit do's and don'ts
Get Smart About Credit Day is sponsored by the American Banker's Association. If you would like to request a Get Smart About Credit Day kit, you can visit the ABA site.
