Larry Chiang

[edit]

hi, this is Larry Chiang

I started UCMS, United College Marketing Services. It sold credit cards to college students using Credit Strategies Seminars. To further solve some of the problems in my industry, I started Duck9: Deep Underground Credit Knowledge. It also means to duck 9's. 9s are charge-offs. Charge-offs are bank loans written off as dead that very much hurt your credit score.

Yes, I cracked the Fair Isaac credit algorithm and actively refute their claim that the average FICO is 723. It is 535.

In Business Week, I poke fun at the ludicrous assertion of the average FICO of 723 where VCs in my neighborhood only have a FICO of 723. Google "10 VCs and their FICO"

I just edited "credit card" by adding "College student drop out rates"(Source: Duck9) and "College student work patterns due to credit card debt" (Source: National Center for Public Policy and Higher Education)

College students with credit card debt tend to work more and study less because they work part time jobs 65% VERSUS 48% and full time jobs 19% VERSUS 11% Larrychiang (talk) 18:21, 14 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
