Credit Ability: Build a Strong Credit History and Understanding Your Credit Report Your credit score is based on how you use credit, and it’s a number you can control. Unfortunately, many people don’t understand the long-term consequences of their day-to-day financial decisions. Building a strong credit history means more than getting approved for a credit card. It means paying all bills on time, keeping a lid on how much you owe to other people, responsible credit use over a long period of time, and having a healthy mix of credit over time. Your credit history—good or bad—follows you throughout your lifetime and has a significant impact on your family’s well-being and overall bottom line. New York University Federal Credit Union wants to give you the tools to lay a solid foundation for your future. Come to an informational session, “CreditAbility: Build a Strong Credit History,” There’s no cost to attend. The seminar is geared toward individuals and families who are just beginning their financial life, as well as those who may have gotten side-tracked along the way and need to start fresh for whatever reason, or those who want to make sure they’re on the right track.

Explore New York: Corona, Queens Get to know and taste Corona, Queens. Twenty years ago Corona was a tense neighborhood. Longtime Italian residents were unwelcoming and at times downright violent towards newly arriving Latino Immigrants. Today older Italian men and younger Latinos banter in a mix of Italian, Spanish, and English over lemon ices and games of bocce. A newer Mexican restaurant offers Italian Special tamales with peppers and sausage as a nod to the generations old Italian markets around the corner. Still Corona is a complex neighborhood, but mixed into the challenges it faces, it has its charm: rich street life, great food and triumphs as newer immigrants make their way in New York just as the Corona residents of old did.
