do you want nice clothes? thrift your suits and get them cleaned and tailored, they'll look great and most likely be higher quality than new stuff this is my entire wardrobe

"im taking out this loan to improve my credit score" NO you are letting yourself get scammed as an excuse to buy something you cant afford

there are only two real credit scores "good enough" and "shit" and if you want to try to game this you are probably in the second bucket and you should simply stop buying shit for a while

Replying to @eigenrobot
I've never bought an extended warranty. I don't think I've ever been offered a protective coating, but that sounds possibly-worth-it? Things *do* fall apart, if the protection *worked* it might be worth it just to stop worrying. But from your tone, I'm guessing they don't?

they price them so that the expected cost of the repairs is much lower than the price of the warranty worth it if you're liquidity constrained, otherwise it's a money losing proposition
