The standard advice for building credit is simple: pay your credit card bill in full by the due date each month. But a Chicago mortgage broker argues that this timing leaves money on the table—and can keep your credit score lower than it should be.
Radio personality David Hochberg recommends a different approach: pay your credit card every Friday. He tested this method on his daughters when they opened their first credit cards last summer. Both, now aged 20 and 22, have credit scores in the 780s after just six months of credit history.
