We are talking money this morning, specifically your credit.  I have details about a free community education and financial empowerment event coming up designed to help persons understand and improve their FICO score.  My guest is Joanne Gaskin, VP of Scores and Analytics at FICO. She heads up the Score A Better Future

On Wednesday, July 17, FICO, the leading credit scoring company, together with Operation HOPE and consumer advocacy groups, will host “Score A Better Future,” from 6:00-8:30pm ET at the Kaiser Permanente Center for Total Health.   The event offers attendees the opportunity to learn the key ingredients in their FICO Score, and walk out with a roadmap for their future with free 1-on-1 counseling from accredited credit coaches from Operation Hope.  More information here:
