You’ve heard of sales tax, property tax, and income tax. But there’s one tax that’s silently draining your money every single month:
❗️The “Credit Tax.”
This isn't a government fee. It’s the hidden cost you pay for having bad credit—and it shows up in:
Higher interest rates on cars, credit cards, and loans
Lower credit limits and stricter terms
Security deposits for utilities, phones, and apartments
Application denials that delay your financial progress
In simple terms?
💸 You're paying more for everything—just because your score is low
What’s the Damage?
Let’s say you finance a car.
Someone with good credit gets a 4% interest rate.
Someone with bad credit gets 17% or more.
Over the life of the loan, that could mean paying thousands more—for the exact same car.
And it’s not just loans. Bad credit can affect your:
Insurance premiums
Job opportunities
Rental applications
Cell phone plans
It’s the cost of being locked out.
