Thanks man, really gives me a reason and motivation to keep living /jk

I love when teachers would tell me "if you think it's bad now, wait till you're an adult!" it really adds flavor to the "where do you see yourself in 5 years?" questions and all that 😊

    Don't listen to the person above. Keep doing what you are doing and it will go up. Especially as you have more times of credit. Mortgages, car loans etc.

    Yeah, I know. I just wanted the guy to consider if they were being an asshole for a few minutes.

    I can totally recognize the fact that I'm lucky to have parents who are doing financially well and are willing to provide most of my basic needs while I finish college, which allows me to have a good credit score as I really only have to pay for gas, car stuff, and miscellaneous things.

    But I can also pat myself on the back at least for not blowing through my cash and maxing my cards on stupid shit like cars & designer clothes.

    And besides, it's not like anyone gets a prize for winning the "Struggle Olympics" I just want to not be miserable in the future, and I'll take anything I can to reach that goal.
