I know many people with a high credit rating who are broke as fuck, they own nothing, they can barely make it without personal off-the-books loans, and they are always one missed 2 week check away from total collapse and losing everything.
I'm dealing with someome right now who I have to loan money to, before they lose their brand new truck, big house/income property, and are on the street. BUT HEY... they have an 830+ credit rating. This isn't the first time with this same person, it's like every 2-4 years they hit the skids and I bail them out(I may get paid back 25% each time).
Oh, but on their Facebook page they are totally balling with pictures of vacations, nice cars, flashing the cash and their LIFE IS GREAT persona.
Yeah, this time my help will be limited and come with strict ultimatums or I have to walk away.
Edit to add: Imagine how pissed off I am when I'm owed thousands by them and they show up in their 2024 truck with the newest $1,600 cell phone showing me how neat it is.
"Hey Axel, let me buy you a drink on my (Platinum) credit card", Oh, and when you get a chance... I got to talk to you about somthing."

If I thought, I could get away without paying our property taxes and not lose our house... I would 100% never pay them.
I'd be skimming the shit out of those bets if I thought I could get away with it or it was worth it.
Even if I couldn't get away with it or it or it wasn't worth it, I'd probably still do it just because I can't keep my hand out of the cookie jar.
Your post was absolutely legit. It was on my mind that Redietz had made the assumption that his credit score was better than mine (based on no information whatsoever) and I just took the opportunity of your skimming/tax post to get that thought into a post (in the form of a reply to your post), as I didn't make that point regarding his airball credit assumption earlier.
