By John Ulzheimer for Credit.com
1. Closing Credit Cards Accounts
Some of you may wonder why Closing Credit Cards is number one on this list
as the biggest credit mistake even above Missing Payments. In fact, closing
credit cards is almost as bad of an idea to increase your credit scores as
missing payments, but it is also a clear number one on the list of credit
myths. It is perhaps the most common piece of advice that consumers are
given when they ask,” How can I inc... 阅读全帖 |

A message from our CEO, Michael Abbott:
In July, we announced that we would rebrand the Isis Wallet to avoid
confusion and association with a violent Islamic militant group in the
Middle East whose name, when translated into English, is known by the
acronym, ISIS. However coincidental, we have no desire to share a name with
this group and our hearts go out to those affected by this violence. |

You may have come across some acronyms and abbreviations while learning how
to coupon and shop sales. Some of them are pretty easy to figure out but
then there are times where you are just stumped. I don't tend to use a lot
of short hand myself (would rather spell things out so that they are easier
for people to understand), but most of the couponing and sampling sites use
many. So here is a list to help you out:

Why I Am Leaving Goldman SachsBy GREG SMITH
TODAY is my last day at Goldman Sachs. After almost 12 years at the firm —
first as a summer intern while at Stanford, then in New York for 10 years,
and now in London — I believe I have worked here long enough to understand
the trajectory of its culture, its people and its identity. And I can
honestly say that the environment now is as toxic and destructive as I have
ever seen it.

own clients. What Goldman Sachs is all about is making as much money as
humanly possible. In the end, there is nothing wrong with making money, but
there are constructive ways to make money and there are destructive ways to
make money. Unfortunately, Goldman Sachs seems to ... 阅读全帖 |
