lol oh that's rich then..literally. My husband made 30K MORE than me and I had a better credit score than him with 2 of the 3 companies when we went to get our home mortgage during the building process. Maybe assumptions shouldn't be used by peopleMen making more money than women is why they do better on credit scores and many disparities spawn from that variable, the credit limit is based on income and the credit score is based on how much space there is between dollars used and the ceiling.
The world is absolutely biased. In one fail swoop didn't you just blame her for not knowing she should be defensive and then proceed to explain why she is unjustified in being suspicious because of x, y & z?
Just pointing out the subtleties of the bias and how, if it doesn't impact you, it just sort of rolls off as normal.
Debt to income ratio matters but so does spending habits, so does longevity in your credit history and the lines of credit one has and what your debt is. For reference though my husband is a year younger than me but at our ages when we got our mortgage that wasn't as important (we were young anyways).
Let's not try the line "if it doesn't impact you, it just sort of rolls off as normal"..no where in my comments did I even hint at that. Now who is making the assumptions
