Debt pronWatching 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?

Debt pr0n?I'd be about as exciting as the Amish then, or that scene in Star Trek: Voyager where the two Q made a baby. I'm not really attached to money, but I'm not at all irresponsible with it. Back in high school bought myself a fantastic motor bike for only $750, split the payment half and half with my dad then payed him the rest back over two years. Bought my first car last year that's actually mine...sure it's a Ford but it's in top shape, only a grand. My student loans'll be paid off next year, moved into a bigger and better apartment earlier this year, bought a sweet t-rex r/c heli a few months ago, got a few grand into GIC's, bills get paid the day I get them ...probably helps not being in a high tax bracket or something. I mean, in my mind, how hard is it to not spend money you don't have? My biggest money fuck up? Some time ago I blew the last of the money I had on me at anime north on a box set then realized I now had nothing left with which to buy dinner or breakfast the next morning when I was to leave. I chose anime over food. *hangs head in shame* I don't care for it that much anymore though, kinda grown out of it.
