Rep Power: 55 | | The stock market, unfortunately, doesn't provide an index for interest rates that banks charge each other. It tripled overnight and the credit market has all but frozen. Who gives a shit about 30 stupid companies... the banks are swimming in debt and people can't get loans. |

In the last three weeks, I got a $11,500 car loan, a $16,750 unsecured line of credit, a $32,000 home equity loan, and an increased credit limit on a Bank of America card with an 8.9% APR from $9,500 to $16,000.
So who is not getting a loan these days? Some fools with a 600 credit score? Good, they SHOULDN't be getting them.... Folks like me (with 750+ credit ratings) can get most any loan we want, TODAY. |
