Almost all Americans come across the problem of bad credit score. Steve, the author of the video, gives several useful suggestions to resolve this problem. First of all, one should look at the turning factors when it comes to scoring his credit. Payment history is the most important one. 35% of FICO score is based on payment history, so if you pay on time, your score will never be dropped on hundred points. Next, one should pay attention on the Amounts Owed, which takes 30% of FICO score. The rule №1 – don't keep “max out credit cards”. If it happens, try to pay these accounts down. If you pay your accounts down to 20% or lower, then you will see a quick bust in your credit score within the next month.The length of the credit history is also important. The author suggests to think twice before closing your old accounts. Your old accounts are usually the most valuable ones.

Rocky Narrows ~ Trustees of Reservations ~ Beautiful Day
It was such a beautiful weekend. Today (10/9/11) we went for a walk at Rocky Narrows ~ A Trustees of Reservation in Sherborn Massachusetts. We haven't been here in about 10 years. We walked on some beautiful trails. There was several great lookouts. There is a trail that leads you to the granite bluff that bears the name King Phillips that overlooks the Charles River and Railroad Bridge and Rocky Narrow lookout Ledge which also has a beautiful view that looks through the Hemlocks over looking the Charles River.
There were many varieties of Mushrooms.
We walked down to the bank of the Charles River. A few Trees had started to change color. It was so pretty.
