My (and mickey's) credit rating puts us maybe in the top third of Americans. Good, but not great. My reporting on the subject is a study in reality, not the usual "AP" nonsense. On many previous occasions, I've stated that my net worth is almost exactly the average net worth of the basic white American 65-year-old male. It's right on the button. I'm actually proud of that since the variable correlating most with a person's income is his parents' income.
I think all of the "APs" should post their scores like mickey. Cuts to the heart of what they claim.
P.S. Sat down with a banker today for about two hours, so that ties right in with this topic.
