Got approved for a home loan all on my own. If you ever get married, and then wind up divorced, don't be scared that your credit will get ruined and you'll be stuck renting or in some place you're not happy. I've dragged my credit out of the gutter, don't have debt collectors calling me all the time, and I actually have (and have had for a while now) money in savings. I'm pretty d@mn stoked, but mostly just wanted to say that if I can do it, y'all can to. Or, just don't ever get married to begin with. Also sound advice.
