We live in a credit world. There are lots of banks offering all kinds of credit from personal loans to credit cards. The amount of people who have credit cards is staggering and rising every year. Many people can’t make do without credit.

Because most consumers lack discipline and financial education, they often find themselves in situations like court judgement, bankruptcy, and loan default which we call “Bad Credit.” This often makes it very difficult for them to get credit after being in this kind of situation.

What is credit?

Credit is a loan, mortgage or credit card. It is cash you ca borrow for your own purpose, you have to sign an agreement or contract to pay it back, and you pay it back at interest. They check your credit history first, and if you have ever defaulted on the payments of a loan, or if you have a bad credit history, you will find it almost impossible to obtain a loan.

In some countries it is possible for you to improve your credit history or build a new good credit history by repairing your credit. However, prevention is better than cure, so if you have problems paying things back, it is better to get a debt consolidation loan, or to go to each creditor and make an arrangement with them. It is then very important to stick to your arrangement, otherwise you will get a bad credit history which will be difficult to fix.

You have to remember, it is your money, and you need to be responsible with it. It is imperative that you start immediately. You also need to learn from rich people, who hate paying interest. It is better to only borrow money for things like Real Estate, but never ever take out a credit card if you can’t pay it back in full after the end of each month. I manage my credit card with a $500 limit which I asked for. I don’t trust myself with more than that. If I want something that costs more, I put more money in my credit card. In some countries, the very high interest rates on a credit card can work in your favour if you use it like that.

You need to take charge of your finances and start a savings plan, even if that means coming to an arrangement with your creditors and paying them less so that you have something to save. Your savings should be re-invested so that you can build up a passive income so you don’t have to take out a loan from a financial institution again.

What is the best savings plan? I am glad you asked: It is gold. Actual, real, physical gold. I have already stated in previous articles why gold is the perfect investment: In most countries it is tax free, it is inflation proof and recession proof.
