No point in blaming someone else for poor financial decisions though, with loans credit cards etc people know the terms and know it will have to be paid back.

I wouldn't spend money I don't have. Only loan I have ever had is my mortgage, never even had a credit card.

Ah de frugal Nordies. Protestant too?

My mother owned almost nothing either. As she said, having assets could be dangerous. It was simple though in our case with just myself as her only child, whom she knew would always act in her best interests, like she did in mine.

If she put the €120k in to Apple shares in 2005 it would now be worth €5.5 million.

the story about the housewife from templeogue, who was the biggest loser when Elan shares tanked is interesting, her husband was one of the original investors

Beechwoodspark · 27-01-2021 02:15PM

She got to talk to some unidentified man

She thinks he was a director of the bank

Why does she think this ?

He was a “lovely smooth talker”

Just coz u think your mother is being screwed david doesnt make it true

Maybe they should be asking WTF was going on in my mothers life that she had to turn to a bank to get these high loans, unless of course they were happy to help them spend it?

I was lucky with my age (during celtic tiger), was still living at home, lots of fun and travel with the girls, then the SSIA paid out and cleared any loans and never got one since (bar the mortgage)

Had an absolute blast!

I'm sure there are signed loan agreements. Imagine going into a bookies after a big loss saying, " I've made a mistake, can I meet you half way?"

It's all a bit withnail and I "we've gone on holiday by mistake"

2smiggy · 27-01-2021 02:19PM

I can't believe they are actually talking about this. People are too thick to understand the loan and interest would eventually have to be paid back ?!?

Odyssey 2005 · 27-01-2021 02:19PM

Is there any other country in the world where people would get 30 + minutes on a prime time radio show complaining about paying their legitimate debts,and getting sympathy from a bloke on 400k+++ ??

So thats what Mary spent the money on. Acid. A different kind of trip.

Only Joe could think you could spend 120k on a trip to Lourdes.

I hope he has a go at (and makes a pig's ear of) the quip; if you owe the Bank €10,000, they take you to Court but if you owe the Bank €10,000,000, they take you to dinner.
