Well I really enjoyed reading that! Ha...
"oh my gosh an adult has taken out a loan" yes... i'm sure it'l get written off by the bank and in all the papers...
What a laugh
Obviously I hope it was a wind up, for the childs sake if thats how stupid his parents are and how much they molly coddle him!0 -
get over the fact that you son has screwed up and now is going to face the musicyou cant change yesterdaybut you can make tomorrow better0

it makes me laugh the fact that he was old enough to have spent the money but not old enough to repay it!!!!!!
aslo if a 18 year old were to commit a crime they would go to prison not play group grow up let him learn his lesson!!!you cant change yesterdaybut you can make tomorrow better0 -
I think he spend it on a new hoody and a pair of nike trainers - the rest went on Diamond white cider and fags.

He must have spent it at http://www.realdoll.com which wouldn't be too much of a problem if his mother hadn't caught him and found he'd ordered "Mike"
And the company won't take the goods back as it's been used.0 -
I cant believe what i just read from the OP. If my daughter took a loan out at 18, I would make her pay it back. too many young people today want everything for nothing0

i stand corrected! :cool:
i guess the OP is busy with their legal team preparing their case. :rolleyes:The difference between genius and stupidity is that genius has its limits0 -
I took out a £1000 loan in february with my bank HSBC. I went on holiday and that was the end of it. the loan was a "flexiloan" which allows me to pay a minimum of £40 per month with the option of me paying more as and when i can afford it. the interest is quite reasonable to 5.3 %. Lesson learned though i won;t be doing that again0
