For a guy making $45,000 to $55,000, what would be the difference from what I'm withholding now, and the least amount I could withhold?
Get a financial advisor and they will look at everything and tell you exactly what you should claim on your withholdings.

That's true. But since annualcreditreport.com started up, they're actually pretty easy to grasp in terms of where you stand in general.

But yeah, if you're looking to buy a house or finance some other large purchase, knowing your score certainly will let you know about what rate you can expect, as well as prevent the seller from pulling any shenanigans (like Honda tried to do with us -- which didn't work, thankfully ).

You know, I'm going to have dig up some stuff I wrote about credit scores and bureaus on my old blog and post it here. Maybe even some of the one's I've done for work. (I write financial education articles for a living.)
