I'm not even sure they're all mine. Most are from my drinking days and I don't know why I would have been charging shit I had some money then... I think my cards all were stolen, and visas cards are SUPPOSED to be covered for that!!
Plus they all want thousands of dollars on 500 and 600 dollar debts. They're cracked in the head, I am dealing with parasitic collections firms, here. They buy the debt for three cents on the dollar, pump the amount up to sky high pie in the sky levels, and offer to settle for many times what you actually owe.
I'm trying to raise enough cash to hope I can stay somewhere and keep my old car running and you descend with the wisdom PAY YOUR DEBTS NOW well how the hell can I do that when I don't know where I am going to live?!
Of course I will satisfy my debts - I will settle them for something closer to the original amount, plus reasonable interest, ONCE I KNOW WHEN AND WERE I WILL LIVE AND EAT, and hope the IRS doesn't try to hit me with their ridiculous 1000% amounts being forgive as being "income"
You have no idea of how fucked up the system is here in the states
Calm down and stop pissing everyone off on the whole board. It's not good for business. I like you, but damn. Cool it if you really are here to try and do some business.
PS: On a PERSONAL LEVEL I owe absolutely NO ONE. On a PERSONAL LEVEL people OWE ME and I'll NEVER GET IT FROM MOST OF THEM. Maybe I owe some money to banks, I'm not even sure but I probably do... but I NEVER HAVE WELCHED on anything I owe to any individual.
