If I organise a direct debit, taking money from my current account into my savings account will this improve my credit rating? My dad reckons it won't because the money is still mine but surely this proves I am reliable?

My total income was $9600. $7200 went to rent, and $2400 went to groceries.
How do I find the percentage of my income that went to rent, and the percentage that went to groceries? I need to understand how it's done so that I can learn to do it myself.
Thanks.

Are there any savings accounts where you can achieve interest monthly and how much interest would that be? I know there are annuals and even quarterly.but what about monthly?

Being that it's been stated, a charge-off stays on a credit report for 7 years, regardless if you pay off the balance or not, I was wondering if it would be worth it paying off the debt in the near future (long before the 7 years are up) as the right thing to do.

Since a collection agency normally buys a debt from a credit card company, I understand that it isn't really necessary to pay off the debt to the agency. I was told it's better to simply ignore the collection agency (since they get a percentage of any payment as a profit) and negotiate a payment plan with the credit card company itself. After all, the collection agency doesn't even attempt to lower the interest rate on a debt for a customer. Please advise.

My brother recently went into business with an unknown person and they sent him a check for $15,000. He told me that it is not money laundry and is very legit but I am somewhat reluctant to believe him. But at the same time, I don't know what someone has to gain by giving you a check (that has to clear with the funds available) to deposit into your account. My brother takes 10% of what he deposits and transfers the rest to the check sender's account. I mean, the bank won't clear a check that is no good so what would be the point in giving someone a bogus check?
