Does having a poor credit rating mean I can never secure financing?
I have an idea for a business that I know will take off. However, my poor credit rating is being held against me. How do I win? I'm trying to be self-sufficient and not rely on welfare. All I need is a small loan. What are people in my position to do? Give up completely?
While poor credit may disqualify you from obtaining a bank loan, as a startup with no cash flow, you're unlikely to get bank financing anyway.
