    overdrafts can lead you into major debt, ive got a grand overdraft which is nearly always at its limit before payday, then theres the loan lol

    the temptation of credit is a evil one, when i was unemployed for 6months i was living on an overdraft and 2 credit cards, its took me another 6months to pay most of it off

    yeah i'm in my overdaft quite heavilly, finding myself thinking that it is money that i have, rather than money i have borrowed, was in credit during the summer for a while tho, nothing a few months working and saving won't cover, the loan is another thing tho:(

    its all depressing, especially if you consider how much of the economy must be relying on repayment of loans, not just student ones, bubble will burst at some point.
