  1. I’d laugh if it wasn’t so true.

    I was listening to one company offering loans to get you out of debt to “Payday loans”. From what I understand payday loans have become quite a problem. Apparently, once you fall behind with one paycheque, it’s almost impossible for many people to catch up, and then they pay some ridiculous amount of interest charged in “late fees”.

    I might have to link to this and blog about it.

Don't be shy, you can comment too!

 
Some things to keep in mind: You can style comments using Textile. In particular, *text* will get turned into text and _text_ will get turned into text. You can post a link using the command "linktext":link, so something like "google":http://www.google.com will get turned in to google. I may erase off-topic comments, or edit poorly formatted comments; I do this very rarely.
