Let's Talk Money

Let's Talk Money: Understanding Your Credit Score

Your credit score is a big part of your financial identity. It can be the most important factor in determining whether you can get a loan and how much it’ll cost you. Bad credit can affect you in areas of your life you wouldn’t even expect.  Take employers and landlords, for example. They may look at your credit score to see if you’d be a responsible employee or tenant.  From carrying a balance to cancelling your credit card, there are a number of ways your financial decisions can affect your credit score. Learn about the factors to building and maintaining a healthy credit score. Brought to by Bank of America’s Better Money Habits in partnership with Khan Academy.

This series of Let's Talk Money Financial Workshops is free and held in the Central Library conference Room from 12-1 p.m.

Space is limited.  Reservations are required.  To save a seat, register online.
