Best indication of a high FICO score is the Marshmallow test. Can you wait to eat a Marshmallow when two will be given to you later is the infamous Marshmallow Test.

Download #ruleOf72 over on Twitter to read about the Rule of 72.
#ruleOf72 = compound interest. If the interest rate is 1000%, it takes about 5 minutes for one marshmallow to become two marshmallows.
