Finally figured out why my LinkedIn outreach was flopping after 200 DMs

Showerthought: My buddy’s advice about never buying expansions early was spot on

Vent: Paid $40 for a credit monitoring service that did nothing

Exactly the same thing happened to me with LifeLock. Got a notification about a credit check 6 days after it went through, and by then the damage was already done. Called them and they just said "sorry, we flagged it as soon as we could." What a joke. The whole point of paying for this stuff is to catch it BEFORE it happens, not to get a useless heads up after the fact. These companies are just collecting monthly fees and doing the bare minimum.
