This is a question Debt pron

Watching TV the other day we caught one of these "Bank of Mummy or the Wife" type shows and we thought, "This is Debt Pron." I.e. peoples financial problems exploited for the voyeuristic pleasure of others. Then we thought, "We bet lots of people on B3ta have massive financial problems. Let's exploit them." So, confess them all. Dodgy credit cards, lending money to some bloke in the pub, visits from the bailiffs, using one card to pay off another. We want to wallow in your fiscal pain. So, what is your biggest money fuck up?

Friend
I do have a friend though, who took out loan after loan to finance car after car.

He took out a loan of about 15k to buy a Saxo (har har) most of which was to cover a previous loan.

Then he took out a 20k odd loan to buy an Ibiza (again more laughing).

Then he bought a new shape Leon (I don't know how much that was) but I think in total he owed £25k plus to cover all that lot.

He then, with his current partner (Crazy girl from an earlier post) rolled his debt into their mortgage - 25 years to pay off a huge debt that he ran up way before they even met.

Mad? Very.

And he's run up more debts since. Some people never learn.
