In The GOOD Book, I explain what a credit score is, why it matters, and how understanding it forms part of taking control of your finances. If you haven't already, I'd recommend reading Section 10: Understanding Your Credit Score before using any credit monitoring service.
Credit Karma gives you free access to your credit score and credit report, helping you monitor changes, spot potential issues and understand how lenders may view your credit history.
A credit score isn't everything, but it's a useful indicator of your financial health and an important part of your journey towards Lifestyle Freedom.
