    Aren't they just as subtle as a kick in the nuts?

    90% of them for people in debt.

    I've often said the same. It really shows how low these companies will go advertising on racing channels, they're basically targetting people with gambling problems who as a result have financial difficulties. Either that or they think most people who watch horse racing are losers who can't get a loan anywhere else.

    Did you ever see some of the interest rates in the small print, they can be up to 20%.

    Now where did I put that number for Ocean Finance.

    Aye, we've talked about this before alright. I know they have to get their revenue from somewhere and of course these company's are using their heads with their placement. If SIS needed to advertise they really would be the perfect hosts for these ads.

    These ads really piss me off when watching ATR. That Ocean Finance ad especially. But you're right, they have to get their revenue from somewhere.
