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?

ah moneywell, im a student. cleverly didnt take out a loan tho, so nothing really to pay back at the end of it except my tuition fees, which i only hav to pay back when i start earning over £15k per year. also, working over the summer with two jobs helped me earn over 4k in 4months. most of which has been spent on booze.
biggest money fuck up? spending £1500 on a saxo that was no more than 3yrs old, splitting the cost wi me folks, getting caught speeding in it three weeks later (three penalty points and £60 fine) and then crashing it (no points as the police were never told). only got £500 deducted off the insurance claim (car is under my dad's name), but then spent the money on a micra. managed to rip most things of value from the saxo tho, and underestimated the mileage by bout 500 miles. oh well!
*pop* cherry!
