Thank you for putting this out! I still have the document that you originally sent a few weeks ago, just haven't gotten to it yet. I'm starting a company in the midst of all the hoopla. I figure no better time than now while are the crazies are distracted. Your insight and shared wisdom is spot on and consistent with my own advise of others (and of myself), thank you for validating! You make a great point of conscious and active observation. This is lost on too many people these days and you know it. Anyway, thank you for all of your work and service. Just came across you a couple months ago and my whole family follows you daily now! I wish we could get direct texts instead of e-mails with some of your trades. I just think it would be easier to find and execute.

Growing up it was normal that life was a struggle. It wasn't just my family that's how all families were around me. As backwards as it sounds we were never taught about the importance of credit. We were taught how to get around the obstacles that having bad credit creates. It was not abnormal to find out you have bad credit by the time your 18 due to aunt's, uncle's or parents putting utilities in their kids names. If you were lucky and that didn't happen to you turning 18 was like a shopping spree. Having nothing your whole life and now your able to buy stuff. Seems like a deal, minimum payment $35 for $500 worth of stuff. Than the credit card offers start rolling in. Unfortunately if your upbringing doesn't teach you, schools don't teach you, you don't realize the hole your in until that time comes when you need credit in order to participate in life as a functioning adult.... So 38 years later, thanks Greg for finally teaching me. I literally got my first response from TransUnion:

DISPUTE REASON:

Accuracy

The balance and/or past due amount

are/is incorrect.

RESULT:

Disputed item deleted

TransUnion investigated your dispute and deleted this item from your credit report.

This will be life changing for me. I will send my thanks as a donation.
