Kevin Trudeau Debt Cures Book Reviews of Chapter Sixteen

January 31st, 2008 | by admin |

According to chapter 16 of Kevin Trudeau’s book, Debt Cures, America remains a nation of debts and the debt continues to grow each day. Trudeau says the amount of debt grows by $2 billion a day. Are we becoming a nation oppressed by banks, credit card corporations and department stores? The competition for consumers is at an all time high and companies keep finding Americans willing to go into debt.

It used to be that you needed to be a good credit risk before anyone would loan you money. That’s no longer the case as lenders look for people who will pay back their credit, only after missing a few payments and earning the lenders huge profits. Loans used to be a win-win situation, with the borrower able to repay, and the lender making a modest profit. Now the profits are obscene while the borrower is less and less likely to repay without first getting into some problems.

With the abuse of the system one would think that companies are having a hard time finding new people to scam, but Trudeau says that is not the case. He says that companies are targeting the least likely to pay back; illegal aliens, the poor and college students.

One would think that you wouldn’t want to loan money to illegal aliens, they don’t have credit records or social security numbers after all. But if they can get an identification card, then they can get a credit card. Once they have a credit card, then they can be charged for late fees, penalties and high interest rates, just like you or money. Another way to help illegal aliens join the American dream.

Further, credit card companies are marketing poorer neighborhoods of America for hopes of catching new customers. People who are having difficulty paying their rent and utilities, now go to the mailbox and find tempting offers of new cash, only to find out the hard way that they could be ensnared with greater and greater debt.

Finally the most sought after group is college students. Hook kids in their late teens and early twenties and they may be paying interest for the rest of their lives. All you need to do to get a credit card is to be enrolled in college. Your ability to pay isn’t even considered. By the time Mom and Dad find out, the student may be thousands of dollars in debt, in addition to the expense of college. Credit card companies are allowed to set up booths on campus to sign up students. There’s little to stop them and the rewards for the credit card companies (and the expense to the students and their families) are almost limitless.

Kevin Trudeau says “that debt is the one issue in this country that touches everyone.” Debt does not discriminate; everyone is fair game, but the game isn’t fair. Trudeau says it’s a call to arms, for us to fight back. Debt Cures states that we cannot allow these companies to continue, it is costing everyone. Some parents have contacted Washington but more need to be done in order to bring about action.
