Here are the ready-to-go slides for this Question of the Day that you can use in your classroom.
Behind the numbers (from Lexington Law):
"How much damage can a bad credit score really cause? A 2020 survey suggested that individuals who take out an auto loan of $25,346 with a “fair” credit score could pay up to $3,847 more interest than a person with a “very good” credit score taking out the same loan.
Similarly, someone with a “fair” credit score may pay $8,640 in interest for a student loan, but another student with a “very good” score might only pay $3,933 interest for the same loan."
