    What's the minimum payment? 
  • If you only pay the minimum on your credit card and the rate is over 17%. If your balance is £1,000, how close to bankruptcy are you?
    What is your real question or statement/warning?  (Which continent do you identify with?)

    If you're earning and/or have assets, not at all close.
    If you've no income and less than £1000 in assets, very close.
    Not sure there's any maths in this though.
