    This reminds me that roku's 4k 55in with HDR is only $429 now. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07987KQBN/?tag=thtv02-20

    People do love buying the 'best' when it isn't needed.

    Likely a direct impact of lowering your overall revolving debt percentage which always has a big impact.

    Before I told my gf that I would marry her, i said I needed to go over her finances. I'm not a controlling person at all, but its a responsible thing to do before you get married. In the state of Wisconsin, when you get married, what was hers, becomes mine and I havent managed my money the way that I have all these years to have somebody else void my ability to get credit later on in life. AND you cannot apply for any mortgage related debts without them pulling a spouse credit as well regardless if they use thier income. When we first started dating she had a bad tendency to spend a lot of money on stuff she didnt need and would roll over balances each month paying the minimums. Long story short, I was able to move most of the balances to higher revolving line cards at 0% introductory periods. Brought her 650 to a 725 over the course of this past year with aggressive paydowns and Mint.com.

    I love it. I bought a 60in Sony 1080p 5 years ago for 2 grand. Now you could get a similar TV for 400 bucks. Hell, not even similar. Better.

    The nice thing with TCL's TVs is that they use roku as their 'smart TV OS' and personally I would buy a roku to plug into the other TVs so that saves you like $80.

    Roku > whatever garbage smart OS TVs are using

    See. I wish I could just find a dumb TV. I dont need a smart TV, 3D features, etc. I dont care. I use a modded firestick for all of my viewing pleasure and hate paying for features I will never use. You know how many times I have used the 3D feature on that Sony i bought 5 years ago? Once. It was terrible.

    TCL is an awesome brand too. Solid TV for what you pay. I was at costco the other day and found an 80in Vizeo for 999.99. I damn near walked out with it but knew I would have no way of getting it home.

    That is basically what TCLs are. vizios are basically just TVs + chrome sticks so that works as well.

    the problem with smart tvs being so inexpensive is that my boss bought one and discovered youtube, and pelts me with questions like "but how is it free? are you sure i don't have to pay for it?" and "how do they know to recommend videos to me, is it tracking me?"

    About a year ago, I actually got my credit score up to 740. And then I went through another period of unemployment and relied on my credit cards to put food on the table, gas in the car, etc. Needless to say, I was back down to 560 this past summer. Working my way back up again.

    lol. Is it tracking me? Simple answer, everything you do nowadays is tracked. I did a hit a while back that requested my Google search hitsory transcripts. WOW. I felt VERY awkward sending those to a requester. 5 bucks is 5 bucks.

    youll get there. As long as you make the minimums, youll be fine. Its not ideal, but it keeps your score clean. And don't be tempted with bankruptcy, even as easy as it sounds. 7 years that stuff will show up on your report and its going to destroy your future chances of homes and lines of credit. And if it doesnt, your rates are going to be garbage. Also, if you settle for less than owed on cards, make sure that the credit card companies dont report that fact on your reports. Although it may not impact your score, creditors can read the notes on the reports and see you settled for less which can again, impact your ability to obtain credit.

    he's close to retiring, and nope, that's why i get all the technology questions. like "how do i find my text messages again?" at least once a week.

    yeah, i had no idea how to answer that without making it sound ominously orwellian.

    there was also the hit to send in alexa's history. that req got pages of me asking alexa to tell me jokes and meow at my cats.
