And a surround sound system. He doesn't have a job 'till February. I think he has a problem.

:-\
Thats why I fear Credit Cards. Don't want to spend beyond my means.
Thats a crazy amount of money to just throw down on credit
-
Tell your friend he is a moron.
-
Oh, trust me, I have told him that I can't wait until he's in JAIL.

I did that when the Japanese DC came out. No job, no money but I maxed out my CC to get a system at launch with all the games.
I look back on it now, Godzilla and PenPen probably were not worth it...
...but VF3tb was :D
-
I wish I had a Credit Card.
-
Well, as long as he can meet the minimum payments until Feb...
-
Credit=Evil
-
Nah credit cards rule.
-
Dude, he could have paid my bills for MONTHS.
-
Debit cards FTW!
Even though I barely have any money, I'd rather be in this situation than be in a situation where I was in debt. I remember someone here saying bad credit is better than no credit in the long run, and that makes sense...but until I get a good job I'm not going to consider getting a credit card. I can soooo see myself doing something stupid with it, like buying a 360 and a new monitor for my computer. Ugh
-
He should get a couple cards to pay those off.
-
I have one credit card and even thats too much. While I have to wait longer to get things, student loans put em in enough debt.

I'm so glad I avoided that problem; my college education was paid for on my first birthday by my uncle. And then of course in "highschool" I was also in a middle college that was free; WTMC. Akia also was in it

I only have one credit card and I use it for gas, fegit.
It's nice to know that I'm Willco's only friend though :lol
Also, I would never buy a fucking PS3 until that simply amazing FFvXIII comes out!
Also, cocks.
-
I saw a PS3 at Gamestop for the first time. I wanted to drop a deuce after seeing it, a deuce made up of $50 Bills :-[

I don't dabble in credit cards. I had one when I was 18. I bought some DVD's, paid that shit off and then cut it up. Then I did the same thing when I switched banks. That's always been pretty good on my credit.
I don't trust myself with credit cards. I'm too much of a compulsive buyer. If I don't have the cash for it, I have no business buying it.
-
Credit cards = EVIL
-
Amen.
I need a job though. Jan 2007 I swear

Yes, well said, although it IS good to have one for emergencies. You never know when you might need it, especially when you're travelling.
I only have an AMEX card...I use it every month, mainly for buying stuff online, but I never go overboard with it, especially since you HAVE to pay it off entirely every month. It's not like other cards that have minimum payment options.
During college, I got into some debt twice...not even that much...I think the highest I ever owed was somewhere under $2,000, but still, that's a lot for a college student with a crappy part-time job. Luckily I got EVERYTHING settled and paid off after I graduated and went to Japan. I don't really have much money saved up, but I'm also completely debt-free, and that feels good.
Willco, your friend is clearly going to learn the hard way. But hey, I guess if worst comes to worst, he can always take all the crap he bought and sell it all off to make money to pay towards his debts. :P
