Before joining Forbes Brandon worked as a reporter and editor at Bloomberg for seven years where he covered everything from sports to how negative rates impacted the Black-Scholes model. He joined Forbes in 2022 to cover financial markets. Forbes reporters follow company ethical guidelines that ensure the highest quality.

, a 27-year-old from Des Moines, Iowa with an MBA, is dead serious. She’s swapped insurance for the influencer business , and she’s been picking up $40 here and there with a scheme that sounds pretty shady.

On Tradeline Supply’s website recently a three-year-old Capital One card with a $5,000 limit was listed at $322. Meanwhile, a 19-year-old Chase card with a $69,700 limit was priced at $1,955–almost as much as the average AmericanThere appears to be quite a big mark-up involved.

“It’s not technically illegal, but whenever you have to say that something isn’t technically illegal, there’s something else wrong with it.” So in Regulation B implementing the act, the Fed required that lenders attribute payments to both the cardholder and the authorized user spouse in reports to the credit bureaus. In addition, when analyzing a person’s credit worthiness, lenders had to consider the history of any account in which the person was an authorized user spouse. But–and this is key–Regulation B didn’t require banks to figure out which authorized users were spouses and which weren’t.
