Georgios,
When I posted this, I was not unmindful of the fact that many of my friends are from other countries. I have absolutely no knowledge of credit and debt in any country other than the US, but I'm beginning to wonder if it's the same everywhere.
Here, the credit industry has a very strong lobby that has managed to secure some laws which seem very unfair. When it comes down to the bottom line, though, we have created the monster ourselves by failing to control our discretionary spending.
I'd welcome posts from elsewhere in the world comparing others' experiences.
