Maybe you shouldn't order a private taxi for your burrito if you need interest free installments to pay for it

Maybe you should look into car affordability in 2025.

Get some ground beef, tortillas, pinto beans, cheese and make 10x the burritos for the same cost.
Maybe we need a strong currency instead of goy bucks https://t.co/E4mSMLWsN3

I mean, debt doesn't really matter if you don't own anything. What are they gonna do garnish your wages? Most companies wouldn't waste the time.

it rwally does boggle the mind. Like youd think the banks would want to get paid back, butt i guess 2008 taught them that theu can give out loans/financing like candy and if they dont get paid back then the taxpeayer will sibsidize them bc too big to fail. It seems like getting everyone, especially the youth into an unsustainable debt situation is on purpose, butt what purpose could that be? I think were transitioning fo a world where they want less skilled workers(bc ai is gonma take those jobs) and a lot of people who are desperate/unable to help themselves so that theu can be more easily controlled/leveraged.

Can't deny loans because it "disproportionately affects disenfranchised communities" despite said communities never paying back and just trying to scam for a buck.

Most people probably do pay it back.
I'm sure the banks offering these services have a team of nerds who crunch the numbers to make sure it's profitable.

Yes it would lmao.
Now if the default rate is rising... but then again, I'm sure they just charge higher interest rates/fees to make up for it.

The delinquency risk is lower since the amounts are so small they can usually go through before the larger ticket items bounce.
