Man...having credit problems really sucks, doesn't it? I remember back when I didn't have any credit cards either. That was around 12-15 years ago and we didn't have pay pal. There was a couple times I was just sh!t out of luck. It took me awhile, but I got my "poop in a group" by paying all my bills on time.

Good luck buddy, let me know if I can help out with any advice on credit problems...:tu: .

In Ronald's defense, I dont carry a credit card either. Well, I do - my Exxon card. But thats about it.

I understand. Many people have credit problems....I am well aware that Ronald isn't the only one.

Um, no? I get offers all the time, and they go straight in the trash. I just dont need one. I got rid of my Discover, Visa, etc long ago.

Yeah that's pretty cool. But those secured credit cards always have catches. I probably would throw offers for them away too.

WTH ?!? FYI, I only have 1 payed-off credit-card by choice and that was for when I NEEDED it for expense reimbursements flying all over the country for IT work. Credit and/or income isn't an issue and we throw away cc app's. all the time. :) Paypal was just more convenient to contribute to Doug's cause.

Hell, Elaine and I were pre-approved for a $400K home recently, but we didn't do it b/c we don't want a big house payment.

Anyway, entertaining assumption on your part, Uncle Rocks.

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!! 146 views???? Come on folks...............this is a pretty decent cause. Ten bucks to help diabetes research. Heck....most folks here probably drop that much on lunches everyday.


They are right on the edge of finding a cure. Let's help them out...:banana: .

P.S. Ronald...in case you haven't figured it out yet...I was just yanking your chain. I didn't expect to get to mess with Garret too. That was what is known as a twofer. :throw:

The Walk was a success - They collected $116,000 in Colin County and I think about 150% of that at the White Rock event . That doesnt include all the corporate donations, matching donations or the Online donations

TALON and freinds has collected $1130 !!! Thats Awesome !!!

Thanks
Doug
