Taking the time to understand your credit score and improve your credit score has the potential to save you (earn you) tens to hundreds of thousands of dollars over your life time. The credit score affects your mortgage rate, if you can rent an apartment, your premiums on car insurance payments, credit card eligibility, what annual percent rate (APR) that you are eligible for, and even the ability to obtain employment.
The three credit rating bureaus are TransUnion, Equifax, and Experian. They all calculate slightly different scores, and you are eligible by law to request a free credit report from each every year. These agencies combined do produce something called a VantageScore and you can monitor your VantageScore from third party websites like Credit Karma. I personally use Credit Karma and it is free and simple to navigate. I highly recommend it to monitor your credit score and history.
35% of your score is Payment History: Do you have any late payments? How are they calculated? What's the total amount that is late? Always pay at least the minimum requirements for all your bills on time and you should have a perfect score in this category after 7-10 years.
30% of your score is Amounts Owed: The term used is "credit utilization" or your debt to credit ratio. Anything about 50% will negatively impact your score and anything below 30% is best.
15% of your score is Length of Credit History: This is simply a length of your credit history going back 7-10 years. Never cancel old credit cards and be careful how many new cards you open, as each new card will lower your score in this category.
10% of your score is Frequency of New Credit: Open up a bunch of new lines of credit in a short amount of time looks bad. It signals your might be in financial trouble. Hard inquires will drop your score 3-5 points and remain on your score for up to 6 months. After that your score fully recovers. People checking your score also effects this category.
10% of your score is Diversity of Credit: Having many different kinds of debt positively reflects on you, from a home mortgage, auto loan, student loan debt, business loan, to credit cards.
