Sure, but wouldn't be better for most people in this situation to simply default on their current debt, that take on these 150% loans that will bankrupt them just as well 2 years later.
- SketchySeaBeast 7y agoThat's a hit to your pride. Who wants to give up like that? And in more practical terms, how does that help with your problem this week? Now you have a broken car and zero ability to get non-predatory credit.

Then how do you get into an apartment where they do credit checks and they see you've got awful credit. Those apartments will either charge an arm and a leg in security deposits, or deny you.
