I remember the ad for some credit repair service: Black man: "My credit card debt was OUT Rageous!" I always laughed, like it was something that"happened" to him, not his fault at all.
"Money talks, bullshit walks."
I would not lend a dime to someone who doesn't look like I do, even then probably not either. It's fuck or walk pal.
About 16% of auto loans are sub-prime. There's about $1.3 trillion in outstanding auto loans. So roughly $200 billion in sub-prime loans. The major banks don't make sub-prime loans directly, but they do loan to the companies that make the loans to the "owners".
Suddenly, the people making loans @ 29% interest don't look that smart. They were just funneling money to people running their own personal ponzi schemes.
people just can't make their auto payments...
the worst offenders...those in DC.
About 1 outta 4 didn't make last month's car payment.
