“while your investment appreciates in value”, hopefully.
Even if it loses 90% of its value it’s still a win if the money came from credit cards you never paid back. Although the couple of hundred bucks you get might not be worth the hassle
You will also be unable to take out any debt upon release. It’s difficult to get credit as a released felon without a history of defaulting on debt.
So, being generous and saying that he sees a 4% return on his investment, he’ll have slightly more than he went in owing, and will be completely unable to even get a car loan, a decent job, or place to live.
He will have turned 0 dollars in to a lifetime of hardship.
Correction: He will have turned 0 dollars into a lifetime of hardship and a few hundred dollars.
If all of the defaults occurred >7 years ago and there’s been no credit activity since the individual would have no credit score because of no credit history. I know this because I’ve literally seen it happen. What you do then is apply for a secured credit card (basically you pony up some cash to secure an extremely low credit limit) then after you’ve established a payment history and a credit score you can move on from there. As far as I know financial institutions do not take into account one’s felon status when determining elgibility
In prison.
Butthole destroyed.
Make check on coin.
Massive loss in value.
No.
Just so you know you don’t need to go to prison in order to get your butthole destroyed. It’s much easier to just go on Grindr, which is only an emotional prison.
For most guys it’s entirely possible to go to prison without getting their butthole destroyed, if that’s not their thing. From what I’ve been told, there are plenty of willing partners in most prisons, so unless you’re a truly weak and vulnerable person, provided you follow the unwritten rules and don’t do anything super fucking stupid, you’ll probably be fine.
It sucks that the weak (often mentally ill or intellectually disabled and so forth) get victimized in US prisons, but the inhumanity of housing such vulnerable people with known predators is by design and is a feature not a bug.
You’d still owe that debt. Unless you go to prison for live than the debt’s statute length. Generally 7 years.
Also some jurisdictions make you pay for the privilege of going to prison.
Ymmv, choose your state of jurisdiction very carefully.
Also crypto is a bubble IMO.
IMO nothing, it’s pure speculation powered by nothing but blind greed. If it isn’t a bubble, then nothing is.
Lmao yeah me trading an hour worth of work for a meal that I will consume is the same thing as me trading an hour of work for a nebulous pile of 1s and 0s and hoping some dipshit will pay 2 hours worth of work for them later
How many bubbles pop 3 three times and then proceed to blow up bigger than the last time? I know of exactly zero. Looks more like an adoption curve when expressed logarithmically
Adoption for what? There’s no indication that it’s becoming interconnected to the economy at large. Just the opposite, in fact. FTX, one of the biggest crypto banks, completely collapsed and the rest of the economy didn’t care. If it was Goldman Sachs or BoA, everyone would be sounding alarm bells, because they are actually integrated into the rest of the economy. Crypto just isn’t.
Wait if you can avoid debt collectors for 7 years they just forget about you?? Like I could fuck off to another country where they can’t garner my wages and come back and they can’t do shit about it?
Debt is super weird. In some cases you can have thousands very much just disappear after 7 years, in others they’ll hunt you down mercilessly over a $25 copay they mailed you a “this is not a bill” letter about 2 years ago. My wife was pretty deep in debt when we first started dating and I literally have seen both extremes and everything inbetween.
I think you would make more money if you gave handys behind the Wendy’s dumpster every day for 7 years.
> Realise you still owe the credit card debt.
Just commit a crime with a longer sentence than your state’s statute of limitations.
