Millions of ordinary Americans will pay more or be denied credit, insurance, rent or utilities because of the growing use of the consumer “Credit Score”. In virtually every household budget a Secret Sacrifice is being made by consumers as creditors use the credit score to justify increased fees on the highest level of consumer debt in history.

Here's How The Secret Sacrifice Costs You:
