How does one get credit?

Yall know the story about me... I am going to be a bit vague here..

#1 100% Debt Free
#2 Low 6 figure savings
#3 Mid 6 Figure retirement (401k)
#4 No Credit Card debt
#5 DTI (Debt to income ratio =0)
#Paid 30 yr mortgage off in 5.5 years
#Bought car on 4 year financing in 2005 paid off in 2 years
#Bought Car with 4 year financing in 2002 also paid off in 2 years
# Have 1 bank credit card (Visa) Pay off in full every month
Income per year is High 5 figures to low 6 figures per year

No bankruptcies or late payments ever on any thing I ever bought since the early 90's.

I am not interested in buying anything or looking to buy anything but why is my credit score in the mid 600's and how do I get it to go up?

I am fully prepared for a bunch of stupid comments that I am just going to filter through to get to the legitimate ones so fire away... I know there are a bunch of people on this forum that make good money and are pretty smart except for their choice in a football team so give me some pointers.

Being Debt free is wonderful but if I ever choose to go buy someting like a stupid cell phone on a contract (which I haven't) I am going to be super pissed having that kind of coin and getting turned down...

Fire away

Welp.. Weird as it sounds I got a Discover It card and a Bank Of America rewards card and my Transunion score went from 669 to 718 almost overnight and my Experian and the other one has jumped to mid 800's WTF

I haven't even used the BOA card and bought some Gun Mags online with her Discover...


I thought it would take alot longer

Ok I am bringing this back to life hopefully to help someone else trying to get their credit up... In a little over 2.5 months I got 3 credit cards

Bank of America Rewards 1500 limit
Discover It 4000 limit
and Chase/ Amazon Visa 4000 limit

First month my credit score actually went down because I put all my gas, groceries and eating out on the BOA card and actually had 1522.00 bucks on it after a month for a 101% utilization.. This is not good even though I paid it off in full on time.. You should not max out a CC even if you pay it off as it will hurt your score... I found a way around this..
Make multiple payments per month to keep the balance low and it improves your score..

Bank of America pays 3% back on gas, 2% on groceries and 1% for everything else (I use this one now for nothing but gas)
Chase pays 2% back on groceries and restaurants and 1% on everything else(I use this one for groceries)
Discover it Pays 5% on rotating categories (until 07/1 it pays 5% on home improvements after July 1 it will pay 5% on Gas)

It's working out good Credit Karma is reporting my score is now 81% higher than the rest of the users of the site...

Hope this helps someone who does not know this info.

Theoretically they don't want to see you put more than 50% the max limit on any credit card. You can offset this by paying off the balance on that card early in the month, as most card balances don't get reported until the end of the month. That is the trick around that scenario if you do end up charging quite a bit of that card limit.

Then you will fail. Just like the Raiders. You should chop up all your credit cards right now and go back to your cash only way of living since you've confirmed you're not mature enough to own a credit card. You can save enough to buy you a house before you die . Unless you die before you're 80.
