Thanks Obama for the credit card interest rate hike.

Why evade the question? Why not be a man and take your responsibility for your own mistakes. You charged thousands of dollars, and now you're going to pay the price. This is, in your mind, the fault of the President, who, one supposes, held a gun to your head.

I understand that people who are bad with money, in the aggregate, need help, if only because otherwise they'll sink the rest of us. But individually, it's just sort of sad.

 

Again, read my posts and get to know me before you act like you do. I clear $4,000 a month. I live debt free. I have not carried a balance on any card for years. I only have a small one now because weddings cost a lot. I have 15,000 sitting in a savings account I chose not to use. I know how to take care of myself.

No one in this forum... and I mean no one, takes more responsibility for there actions then me. Aside from the 30,000 a year the government takes from me, nothing about my finances is anyones fault but my own.

The interest rates on credit cards 300 million people are about to see, is the presidents fault. If they have a balance, that's theirs.

 

Wait, Obama runs the credit card companies? Are you returning to reality anytime soon?

If the govt didn't limit rate hikes, what, do you think they wouldn't have gone up?

And seriously, your OP is there for all to see. Let's get a timeline.

1. You spend money you don't have.

2. Obama limits future rate interest hikes to protect people who spend money they don't have, i.e., you.

3. Credit card companies get once last predatory swipe at you in under the wire.

But your (remember, a guy who "takes more responsibility for there (sic) actions" than anybody) response was to blame Obama? Out of the three actors in this little play, he deserves the least blame. The majority of it falls squarely on you. And derspite your self-aggradizing paeans to your own responsibility, you've yet to acknowledge that. Instead, you bizarrely posted your finances. What, are we supposed to be impressed? Are you one of those guys who announcees the bill when he picks up the check in a restaurant, so everybody can see what big dicks wallets they have?

This is a seriously sad little thread. And what's even sadder are that there are millions more like you in America, full of blind, incoherent rage for everyone and everything but themselves.

 

 

If it's really that sad of a thread then why did you respond to it?
