  4. Wrong. She lived beyond her means, racked up a lot of credit card debt and is now trying to justify HER bad behavior.

  5. No it wasn't... she put herself behind the eight ball before she lost her job by getting into debt. Then when she lost it she continued along the same path by deciding to become a deadbeat and blame the bank.

    Bottom line: live within your means and you use the banks. Live beyond your means and they use you.

  7. How do you know that? She never said how much.

    The government lives beyond there means and will tax my children for there reckless ways.

    I guess if the government set a better example I could understand your point about living with in ones means. When the most powerful government, and the most powerful corporations behave in reckless manners and have to have taxpayers and foreign countries bail them out, who can blame the average citizen.

    I guess it’s just not ok for average people to make mistakes.

  8. You lie! she asked the bank to please lower her rate back, and they said no. Then she got an attitude.

  9. Making a youtube video is not rebelling.

    Putting a silencer on your gun and blowing the brains out of an energy trader @ GS is rebelling. :]

    It shows that you are focusing on only one of the problems in this scenario.
