Still has nuggets!

I've been studying credit, credit scoring and banks for over a year now but this book still has nuggets I wasn't aware of... The authors' explanations are easy to follow, no cryptic jargon - which is helpful, especially if you're starting your credit (repair) journey with this book. The narrator is clear, understandable, and not annoying. :) I can only recommend.

P.S. The content might sound a bit repetitive at times, but this enables readers/listeners to jump right to the section they're interested in and not miss anything that's related to the topic but was mentioned before.
