[00:17] IsambardPrince I would have a lot of dollar dollar bills, yo. [00:18] IsambardPrince What makes them think it's wise to get a mortgage with ruined and shitty credit, without rebuilding it at all, without waiting for 4 years, without trying to get a better interest rate, and before they can easily file again if the thing goes sideways? [00:18] IsambardPrince Bankruptcy is basically the only part of the safety net there is left. [00:19] IsambardPrince It's supposed to be a weapon of last resort, but with things in this country being worse than ever, it's often the only answer. [00:19] IsambardPrince Bankruptcy is basically saying "This guy is completely and totally broke. You are ordered to stop kicking him while he's down." [00:20] IsambardPrince But the reason it doesn't work so well in modern times is, people are never far from that, usually.

[05:47] schestowitz[TR2] the chrom* based ones even leap past this warning [05:47] lxo ah. that sounds like those lost battle fallacies that often come up. it's hardly ever too late to make things better. but it can be harder than it was before. [05:47] IsambardPrince The wage earners are usually smarter, and more practical, but it's not helping them make more money.
