    I honestly cant remember. But one time we bought a new Honda and the dealership ran a credit check (on me), then we financed the car with Honda so the Honda finance dept also ran a credit check (same day) and my score dropped 90 points that day. :eek:
    Man I was pissed!!! They kinda knew it the next day. :anonymous:


    It took like 2 years to get it back to where it was.

    Today's lesson.....
    Never let anyone do a double credit check.
    :thumbsup:

    What I took from this was, you didn't want to touch your $47 million in savings so you financed :boink:

    I just registered for next months local county fair, going to put one of the miniature implements in it again.

    Category I signed up for is "handcrafted metal work, adult".

    Last year I took home 3rd place and was the only entry in that division o_O

    I did get a free entry ticket and a check for $2 so there's that.

    Was kind of weird a couple months after getting the mortgage on my house mine jumped like 40 points. o_O

    I guess because it's secured debt? I've bought/sold 5 vehicles since then so it's not that high :rofl:

    She really liked what I have done with the place, said it'll be an easy sell. Gotta repaint the master a lighter color and re-grade the one spot behind the house. Other than that nothing major besides ripping up the floor in the bathroom and repairing a couple cracked joist. Said $250 would be very likely, but will pull comps to see what we're looking at.

    Been a hot minute since this happened, welded something, put safety glasses on and went to the die grinder to grind a little off the inside and a small piece went up under my safety glasses and in the corner of my eye. Little burnin sensation happening. Walk it off sunshine :evil:
