Does your credit score count in other countries?

Does my American credit score even matter anywhere else? Ugh, the whole credit score thing! Seriously, all that hard work I put into building a decent score here in the US? Totally useless if I ever decide to, you know, live somewhere else. It's frustrating, isn't it? Like, I remember that time I was stressing over getting my credit card limit raised – spent weeks meticulously paying everything on time, and BAM! Suddenly, it's all for nothing if I move to, say, France. I'd have to start from square one, building a whole new credit history. It's crazy, right? They have completely different systems in other countries. Makes sense, I guess, but it still feels like all that effort just…poof! Gone. Like, what a waste! I mean, I'm not even planning on leaving anytime soon, but the thought of it is enough to make me a little anxious, you know?
