Ssh Key Permissions

I just shared some ssh keys with myself and ran into this error telling me that I did not set the correct permissions on my key.

        
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
@         WARNING: UNPROTECTED PRIVATE KEY FILE!          @
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
Permissions 0750 for '/home/waylon/.ssh/id_*******' are too open.
It is required that your private key files are NOT accessible by others.
This private key will be ignored.
Load key "/home/waylon/.ssh/id_*******": bad Permissions
repo: Permission denied (publickey,gssapi-keyex,gssapi-with-mic).
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.

I changed them with the following commands.

        
chmod 644 ~/.ssh/id_*******.pub
chmod 600 ~/.ssh/id_*******
