Default Dr. Phil's money series

Today (Mon the 6th) Dr. Phil is airing a show on financially strapped people. Might be interesting.

Holy cow. They found a couple that takes irresponsible spending to a whole new level. I don't even think they want any help, because they don't understand they have a problem.

Sounds like they walked on to the wrong stage, they probably should have been on the Maury Provic show.

Default Craziness!

I felt a lot better about my own financial situation after watching those two that's for sure! OMG that guys quote "Spend until there is nothing left in the account" or something to that nature.

yeah...I was often wondering how those two functioned. It's shows like that that make the American public angry they are paying to bail out these people. I was angry watching the show. I mean- I want all the things they wanted- but I refrained from buying it- now I have to pay for their purchases.

I seen the show. I thought it was sad that they felt they had to buy each others love.
