Bankruptcy, Poor Credit and Insurance

Bankruptcy, Poor Credit, and Insurance
I posted about credit and insurance yesterday, but am not sure I covered everything. I discussed why insurance can be more expensive and harder to obtain if your credit is poor. But after surfing around Bad Credit Blues, I noted some articles on helping people raise their credit, and I'd like to direct you to those a little more closely. You can take steps to repair your credit, and many of these steps will not cost money.

If you have had a bankruptcy, or if your credit has taken the plunge for some other reason, the Credit After Bankruptcy Article can help you begin to raise your credit score rather quickly...say in the timespan of months, and not years.

If you have debt problems, but have not actually filed bankruptcy yet, the bankruptcy alternatives article and free online analysis tool may help you avoid the more drastic steps.
