Good Credit's Your New BFF

I have to admit, here and there, I've been watching episodes of the MTV reality tv show Paris Hilton's My New BFF. It's kind of corny, but it's funny watching Paris Hilton fake friends with some of the girls/guys as the compete to become her new BFF (best friend forever).

A good credit score makes it easier to:

• Get a credit card with a high credit limit
• Get low interest rates
• Rent an apartment
• Get a job
• Buy a house

If a good credit score will do all that for you, it's definitely worth working for minus the reality tv show setting, of course.
