This is really the sad state of affairs. You could pay all your mess off, and pay cash for everything, and then apply for a loan only to find out you have a mediocre credit score. The guy at the lot I bought my truck from told me your credit will go up with a truck note. He was right. I got from no note for YEARS!! to a note, and boom, higher credit score.

It's bassackwards if you ask me.

Another option would be to buy stocks that consistently pay dividends. Then just let it reinvest them. When you retire, you have an income stream there too.
