FAQ
Questions, Answered
Is this credit repair?
No. This site provides educational content about how credit and lending work. Rush Wealth Solutions LLC does not perform credit repair services through this site, and nothing here disputes, removes, or alters anything on your credit report.
Will this fix my credit?
No one can promise that, and we do not. Accurate, timely information generally cannot be removed from a credit report. What education can do is help you understand what is on your report, what affects it, and what your options are. Individual results vary and no specific outcome is guaranteed.
Is this financial advice?
No. The material is general financial literacy content, not financial, legal, tax, or investment advice, and it is not tailored to your circumstances. For advice specific to your situation, speak with a qualified professional.
What format are the lessons in?
Self-paced presentations and recorded video lessons you can work through on your own schedule. There are no live calls.
Who is it for?
Anyone who wants to understand their credit better — whether you are working on a score, preparing to apply for something, or you have been declined and want to know why.
Is Rush Wealth Solutions a lender?
No. Rush Wealth Solutions LLC is not a lender and does not make credit decisions.
Rush Wealth Solutions LLC also operates a separate paid membership community on Skool, Elevate Credit Group (opens in a new tab), which is billed and administered by Skool. That membership is a distinct paid service with its own terms, and it is not part of the educational material on this page.
