Isambard_Princeschestowitz[TR2], I spoke to a reporter who wanted to interview me for a story about credit cards.Jan 08 00:34
Isambard_PrinceSo we'll be doing that call tomorrow.Jan 08 00:35
Isambard_PrinceIt's for an article on Bankrate.Jan 08 00:35
Isambard_PrinceIt's about predatory loan products. I mentioned that I had some family members that have had some dealings with predatory credit card companies and what those banks have ended up doing with them.Jan 08 00:35
Isambard_PrinceAnd how they've managed the card accounts.Jan 08 00:36
Isambard_Princeschestowitz[TR2], "My ex-partner also worked for OneMain Financial and he said he had to quit working there because they were doing personal loans in excess of 40% interest and he told me that they would "basically approve anyone with a pulse". I said that maybe some of them were using the money to further substance abuse? He said that some of them told him that's what they were going to use the loan for and he told them "I didn't Jan 08 00:41
Isambard_Princehear that. I can't know that." and then he gave them the loan. He said he was rated by how many loans he originated."Jan 08 00:41

Isambard_PrinceMinceR, schestowitz[TR2] I said: It will be interesting to see how Chase rehabilitates the Apple card given that Apple's stipulations were exactly why Goldman lost so much money on it. Approve anyone with a pulse, high limits, designed to discourage paying interest. How do you profit with a card like that?Jan 08 01:01
Isambard_Prince Jan 08 01:01
Isambard_PrinceIt's standard operating procedure with cobrands to maybe share some write-offs to get the bank to agree to soften approval requirements, but I don't think Apple even stepped in to offer that.Jan 08 01:01
Isambard_PrinceApple sez: Hey Goldman, please lend people like Mandy $15,000 for Apple stuff.Jan 08 01:02
Isambard_PrinceThey totally won't buy a pile of airpods and a Pro Max Ultra and walk off and stiff you.Jan 08 01:02
Isambard_PrinceAnd even if they do pay, we'll discourage them from owing you interest, so it still won't be profitable.Jan 08 01:02
Isambard_Prince"Goldman Sachs is expected to offload the roughly $20 billion of outstanding card balances at a more than $1 billion discount, according to people familiar with the matter"Jan 08 01:04

Isambard_Prince“Apple is an iconic brand recognized globally for its innovation, design excellence, and commitment to delivering exceptional customer experiences,” said Allison Beer, Chase’s chief executive officer of Card & Connected Commerce.Jan 08 01:06
Isambard_PrinceHooray! Beer!Jan 08 01:06
MinceRrotflJan 08 01:35
MinceRrecognized globally for copying what the market does, but poorly, and at least 5 years late; design flaws and lying about their designs; and "you're holding it wrong"Jan 08 01:36
MinceRfixed that for the cultistJan 08 01:36

Isambard_PrinceMinceR, So Amazon changed their policy for free Prime accounts for people in your household.Jan 08 02:37

Isambard_PrinceI get free Prime from being on my mother's plan, so to keep that I changed my default address to hers.Jan 08 02:38
Isambard_PrinceThen Amazon did not take it away from me.Jan 08 02:38
Isambard_PrinceOf course, twice now I've almost sent a 24 ounce bottle of sex lube to my mother's houseJan 08 02:38
Isambard_PrinceThis time I only had 3 minutes and 34 second to stop them.Jan 08 02:38
Isambard_PrinceThe last bottle lasted me about a month. Would have been about 6-7 weeks but I accidentally knocked it over and some of it got all over the floor.Jan 08 02:39
Isambard_PrinceLong story.Jan 08 02:39
Isambard_PrinceFortunately it was a laminate flooring at that hotel.Jan 08 02:40
Isambard_PrinceUnfortunately, I had just asked the front desk to send someone to hook up my blu ray player to the TV.Jan 08 02:40
Isambard_PrinceFortunately I played it off as having spilled some water. I worked the towels into the laundry on the maid's cart and snagged some fresh ones the next time they went by.Jan 08 02:42

Isambard_Princeschestowitz[TR2], I told the reporter "When you drill down into the numbers, a significant portion of the population can't even afford to have one credit card in their wallet, but the average is now 4.8 and some people have over a dozen. Combined, banks will extend twice or even three times your annual gross income on credit cards. With just the interest on any credit card, this can get away from you quickly if you mismanage them. Jan 08 17:11
Isambard_PrinceThat's assuming you're dealing with a bank that doesn't also want a reputation for loan sharking and adding junk fees."Jan 08 17:11

Isambard_PrinceIt would be better if the law said you can have up to four credit cards and no more than 75% of your annual income in available credit. It would be an improvement.Jan 08 17:19
Isambard_PrinceIf you have $60,000 income the banks should have to cut you off at $45,000 total, not over $100,000.Jan 08 17:20
Isambard_PrinceWhat we need are higher incomes and more take home pay.Jan 08 17:22
Isambard_PrinceNot another credit card.Jan 08 17:22
Isambard_PrinceCredit cards tend to sprawl once you get them for a lot of reasons. Sign up bonuses, different rewards rates, etc. Then once you have them, you are of course tempted to spend.Jan 08 17:23

Isambard_Prince<CrystalMath> there's a reason the FBI director isn't Credit Card PatelJan 08 18:10
Isambard_PrinceCredit Card Patel ran Providian, right?Jan 08 18:10
Isambard_Prince:)Jan 08 18:10
Isambard_PrinceThe Credit CARD Act didn't make the situation any better, it just moved the problem around.Jan 08 18:13
Isambard_PrinceInstead of surprise fees, the banks went and raised their interest rates, a lot, because that's still basically unregulated.Jan 08 18:14
Isambard_PrinceCredit card interest rates in the 90s were like 7-9% usually.Jan 08 18:14
Isambard_PrinceThe banks didn't see them as a highly profitable product, it was rates at about where a personal loan was at, just on a card you could buy things with.Jan 08 18:15
Isambard_PrinceBut after the Credit Card Act banned junk fees, the rates eventually ended up at 20-40%.Jan 08 18:15
Isambard_Prince20% is almost unheard of because you basically need perfect credit to get THAT now.Jan 08 18:15
Isambard_PrinceThere's cheaper ways to get money but the banks sort of gatekeep those. When you get a credit card, you tell a bank how much you make, but they don't usually check.Jan 08 18:16
Isambard_PrinceWhen you get a car loan there's more underwriting, you might get 4-7% because the bank has to make sure you have the income. They need proof of where you live. The car is collateral.Jan 08 18:17

Isambard_Prince2nd cousin once removed.Jan 08 18:19
Isambard_PrinceIt's like how there's Moog synthesizers and Moog car parts.Jan 08 18:20
MinceR:>Jan 08 18:20
Isambard_PrinceMinceR, I told the reporter about credit counseling and financial literacy lessons and how the credit card companies even get in with some high schools and that's like letting the inmates run the asylum.Jan 08 18:28
Isambard_PrinceBanks that want you to owe them money are teaching you how to manage your monney.Jan 08 18:29
MinceR:>Jan 08 18:30
MinceRwill they actually give overtly bad advice?Jan 08 18:30
Isambard_PrinceI donn't know that it's bad advice but it's not terribly helpful.Jan 08 18:31
Isambard_PrinceLike Capital One's financial literacy thing was like how to save up for an air conditioner you'll need next year by socking away $50 a month.Jan 08 18:31
Isambard_PrinceIt's just not really helpful, right>Jan 08 18:32
MinceR:>Jan 08 18:32
MinceRmaybe it's not obvious to some peopleJan 08 18:32
Isambard_PrinceYeah, saving money back and realizing you'll need an air conditioner is the obvious thing. Some people don't budget and then they realize it's 100 degrees and they're sweating bad and they need one now. And they have a credit card.Jan 08 18:33
Isambard_PrinceAnd that credit card is charging them like 30% interest.Jan 08 18:34
Isambard_PrinceWell, even at 4% interest, the US government is now paying so much interest that it rivals the military budget.Jan 08 18:34
Isambard_PrinceAnd we're not even getting anything when we pay it because that's how interest works.Jan 08 18:34
Isambard_PrinceSo if 4% can become that bad, 30% is horrible.Jan 08 18:34
Isambard_PrinceAt a certain point you can't pay your credit cards even if you want to, because the math no longer works, and bankruptcy might be your only option.Jan 08 18:35
Isambard_PrinceI mean, I don't recommend bankruptcy if you can avoid it. I recommend negotiations with your creditors. If you say I need a hardship program because I'm about to file bankruptcy if I don't get one, then they'll pick up on that.Jan 08 18:35
Isambard_PrinceBankruptcy gives you horrible credit for the first few years and may make it difficult or impossible to even secure basic housing.Jan 08 18:36
Isambard_PrinceSo I would say call and negotiate before anything goes late and you can spare yourself many years of credit problems and embarrassment.Jan 08 18:37
Isambard_PrinceBut that only works if you owe money to a few creditors.Jan 08 18:37
Isambard_PrinceWhen it's a dozen and it's all maxed it doesn't matter what settlement you can arrange with Chase. Even if Chase, for example, says they'd take 25% of your unpaid debt, that doesn't help you in the big picture at that point.Jan 08 18:38
