Bad Credit? You Can Still Get a Credit Card

By Laura Perez | Oct 17, 2010

Anyone who has taken a few (or more) hits to their credit score knows that getting a credit card is near impossible. It’s usually recommended that anyone struggling to obtain a card work on repairing their credit before sending out any more applications.

One of the ways you can do this is with a secured credit card. However, not all secured card payments are reported to credit bureaus and therefore, may not help you build your credit. You have to take the time to find the appropriate card, make regular transactions and slowly improve your credit report over the course of about a year. Then you can graduate to a regular, unsecured credit card.

Some people don’t want to take the slow route to their own line of unsecured credit, though. If you’re one of them, here’s a roundup of the current bad credit credit cards currently available. Read more…

Bank of England risks losing credibility over inflation worries, warns Andrew Sentance

By Kenneth Moore | Oct 16, 2010

Mr Sentance, an external member of the Bank’s Monetary Policy Committee (MPC), has repeatedly voted for the base rate to be raised, but has been overruled by his other committee members who want to keep it at the current record low of 0.5pc.

Maintaining such a low rate could damage confidence in the Bank’s ability to steer the economy and lead to “self-fulfilling” expectations of above target inflation, he argued in a speech in London on Wednesday.

In recent years monetary policy and the MPC’s actions have created confidence that stable inflation will be maintained, he said.

“But it is important that this confidence is not eroded by a perception that the MPC has taken its eye off the ball and is becoming more tolerant of higher inflation,” he warned.

Social Security Checks Won’t Increase for Second Consecutive Year

By Kenneth Moore | Oct 15, 2010

Those receiving Social Security checks will be disappointed for the second year in a row as the annual cost-of-living increase will not be implemented for 2011. The 2010 failed increase was the first time in three decades that Social Security recipients did not receive their cost-of-living adjustments and it’s happening again.

Low Inflation Equals Failed Increases

As with last year, inflation has been low due to the recession, said the Bureau of Labor Statistics on Friday morning. As a result, the 2-3 percent increases that usually hit checks in January will not be seen.

There wasn’t a cost-of-living increase, says the bureau, so it’s not feasible to increase the checks. Unfortunately, this means the higher-than-normal 5.8 percent increase beneficiariesreceived in 2009, along with any savings, will have to suffice.

Health Care and Medicare Costs Still Increasing

One major problem that beneficiaries face is that while their Social Security checks aren’t increasing, their Medicare and general health carecosts will.

Easy cash with payday loans

By Admin | Oct 15, 2010

Payday loans have become extremely popular for people who find themselves stuck in a financial rut. For those looking to avoid bad credit through a late fee of over due bills, these loans can be extremely beneficial. Many are turning to payday loans as an instant measure to find temporary financial relief.

A good credit history means a lot today, very often a person’s credit rating will determine the interest and approval of any type of loan. However, with an instant payday loan, a payday loan company often saves people having to pay their bills later, causing bad marks of their credit. At the same time, such loans do not require good credit.

It’s not advisable to turn to payday loans repeatedly, even though they may be useful for those times when people are late or stuck in an unexpected financial situation. It allows a person the opportunity to get money quickly to simply help them get back on track. T Read more…
