I'm sure that you have watched the show enough to realize the keyword for most people is "ownership".  When are people going to take ownership for their own short-comings, mistakes, etc.  It is not the fault of the credit card company.  You said yourself that you knew what you were doing at the time, but now that its gotten way out of hand, its no longer your fault?  Please!   

Everyone makes mistakes, it's what helps us grow and learn (if we choose to learn and accept that we are the ones who made the mistake.)   

There are others who have responded and noted that someone was very ill and it wiped them out financially, etc.  That is a completely different story.  Sometimes those things can't be helped.  But for the majority of the bankrupt people in this country...it is simply irresponsibility.   

Take ownership of your life..and quit blaming the world and thinking everyone owes you something. Including the credit card companies..be smart enough to say...no thank you or I don't need that, once in a while.  Good luck hammer44.
