Doorash and Klarna let you finance your next lunch

https://www.nbcnews.com/business/business-news/doordash-klarna-buy-now-pay-later-food-debt-rcna19735...

 

If you feel like you have to finance your next meal, you have bigger problems than lunch!  Now excuse me while I go lose mine!

 

Quite possibly the DUMBEST idea I've heard of.

Ya just know that there is some clown making minimum wage who is gonna buy some expensive as food to "impress his bros or his ho" and use this option ....ARRGGHHH.  I really really really despair over the choices some people make.

Yep i felt the same way when it was announced. If you need to split your lunch order in 4 payments, then you got big problems.

Sadly, there are many who work for minimum wage and buying lunch can be a financial hardship at times. This seems predatory...enticing people to pay ridiculous interest rates to finance lunch.

Sure why not...

 

Which financial perversion comes next?

There's no shortage of vultures looking to take advantage of people.

 

At the end of the day, you have to take an interest in your own financial well being.  No one cares about your money more, than yourself.

$XXX,XXX in credit lines.
Multiple weeks in free credit reward vacations.
$X,XXX in bank rewards in only 12 months.

800+ FICO.
