I'm a huge fan of normalizing money talk. How are people supposed to learn, if it's not "supposed to" be part of the discourse?? These weird taboos just serve to keep the existing financial hierarchy in place, IMO. So I appreciate your post.
My credit was good enough to help me co-sign on a mortgage lately, but it's "just okay" and I'm sure that having been debt-free for years is a huge part of why. I could be following up with Expedia to fix things, but right now that's pretty far down my list of things to do. (I thought for ages that I'd basically never need a big loan again, but now that I'm considering getting into real estate that becomes less clearly true.)
