Podcast: Credit Card Deals

Back to blog

My worst fear is that the fed will use my tax money to buy up the risky credit card debt from the banks and financials, leaving the public with massive debt and no chance of recovering the money from the former high rolling, credit happy consumers who will declare insolvency.

Please.....tell me this can't happen!!
