Tip # 7 for Good Credit: Order a free copy of your credit report. Under federal law, you can get a free report from each of the three national credit reporting companies every 12 months at www.annualcreditreport.com or call (877) 322-8228. Read your report carefully and correct any errors.
By the way, if you plan to retire from your job before age 65 and are not eligible for Medicare, check to see if you are eligible for COBRA. COBRA is a federal law that typically entitles you to continue your employer's health insurance coverage for up to 18 months after leaving a job.
