Is there a reason to care? I mean yeah if I was about to buy a house..or saving for one. sure, but I have a house..why should I care what my score is? (I do check the reports looking for anything that isn't us or false..I just never cared what the score was)

And even if you think you are all set in life, you just never know what might happen. You could get a great offer for a new credit card and decide to apply. You could decide to remodel your home and need a home equity loan. You could decide to buy a new car and want to get qualified for the 0% financing offer. Bottom line is it never hurts to have a good credit score.

I believe mine was around 710-720 about six months ago, not too sure what its at now. I paid off a CC in full since then, and have gathered no other debt, so I wager it's gone up a little bit.

Everyone should try to keep their balances as low as possible. This will help increase your scores over time. Paying on time also helps as well as limiting the amount of inquiries on your credit.
