- Prime Time Radio
Negative marks on your credit history can be a nightmare—sky-high interest rates, getting turned down for loans or the embarrassment of asking family members or friends to co-sign for you.
In today's tight economy even folks with "good" credit histories are having a hard time. The Money Coach Lynnette Khalfani-Cox has seven steps to getting a good credit rating. Khalfani-Cox is a former Wall Street reporter for CNBC and the author of Perfect Credit. Listen as she tells Prime Time Radio host Mike Cuthbert how she freed herself from $100,000 in debt.
Then, "Proofiness", says mathematician-turned-journalist, Charles Seife is the growing practice of using fake numbers to prove a lie. And it's being employed increasingly to mislead all of us - to convince us that what is, in fact isn't, by using math to make us believe untruths. It's a thought-provoking concept, explained in this conversation with Mike Cuthbert.
Perfect Credit and proofiness…this week on Prime Time Radio.
