In the future I&#8217;ll maybe write something for traditional adults.<\/p>\n<p>It is very possible and obnoxious to build a fico credit card credit score without using a credit card or falling into debt. Avoiding a credit card is funny because Duck9 makes money doing credit card lead gen (lead generation). Also known as &#8221; selling &#8221; credit cards.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Method #1 to Build Credit Score<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Get the family cell phone bill in your name.<\/p>\n<p>This works great if your parents are super anally retentive about paying. A signal that this is the case is when both your parents know if you&#8217;re over the family data limit.<\/p>\n<p>Snicker.<\/p>\n<p>Laugh because its true.<\/p>\n<p>Ask your parents if the cellphone bill can be in your name. If they say yes, I&#8217;ll text message you five critical steps. 650-283-8008.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Method #2 to Build Credit Score<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The family utility bill.<\/p>\n<p>Look, Mommy and Daddy are paying for everything of yours. True?! Mooch more by transferring the utility bill.<\/p>\n<p>Add value back to your parents by doing text message reminders. This adds lots of value if your parents fly a lot and don&#8217;t open mail. Or just say thank you and don&#8217;t add any value to their lives \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n<p>Or I can put the utility bill of one of my houses in your name&#8230; There is a photo album on my Facebook where you call me &#8220;Daddy&#8221; and I help you with your FICO<\/p>\n<p>Note: I MAY SOUND LIKE IM JOKING BUT THIS IS REAL. I&#8217;LL MAIL U A DUCK9 t-shirt IF YOU LINK TO THAT FB PHOTO ALBUM IN THE COMMENTS<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Method #3 to Increase FICO Score as a Student<\/span><\/p>\n<p>This is one you can do on your own. ERR. This one you can do with my help<\/p>\n<p>Borrow my money interest free by taking control of my Mercedes or BMW title and then making ten payments on time. On time and in a row, car payments help.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;ve got the balls to text me to ask me to jeopardize my car, Boomer, or my car Buster&#8230; I just may do a deal with you. Boomer is the Benz and Buster is the BMW. Baxter is the Shih Tzu.<\/p>\n<p>There is no risk to you since the collateral is my car Buster <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fbit.ly%2Fbuster10&amp;h=QAQH-7nFL&amp;s=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">https:\/\/bit.ly\/buster10<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Method #4 to Boost Credit Score<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Add information to your credit report<\/p>\n<p>After you get your credit report (which will be thin or non existent.
