Savings have also dropped drastically.

Americans' savings are dwindling, new poll shows

Oh and Trump's tax breaks are ending so people will have less take home on their checks

People are out of savings and out of room on their credit cards so now what will they do?

Clearly, those that are defaulting on credit cards and auto loans are not using the money they are no longer paying due to student loan reassignment on those loans.

What is the best YouTube series for Automobile Repossessions (aka: "The Repo Man")?

Lately, I've noticed an uptick in the sightings of what appears to be small flatbed transports with fairly new vehicles onboard.

We need to quit thinking of rising debt delinquencies as some tragic event in lives of street level Americans, we need to think of debt delinquencies as pruning the dead branches from the money tree.

Signed,

The Upper Crust .1% who use these delinquencies to consolidate wealth.

This a two part issue IMO. Inflation definitely is kicking families right in the arse and causing more financial woes than the government is leading on. Those costs have been soaring for some time. I can’t blame a man or woman for having to resort to credit card debt to feed their family. On the other hand you have people who are still addicted to spending money they can’t afford. When they don’t have the cash to cover their bills after spending all week on Amazon and eating out every night, they just put it on credit, which exacerbates their financial issues. They have no discipline when it comes to money. Watch how many 401ks will be withdrawn with penalty over the next couple years.

Last year I made some posts on MT about how this was going to be the first stages: credit cards and car loans rising in delinquencies then defaults. Unless the economy has balanced out in time, bankruptcies and home mortgages would be following somewhere behind that.

You can't borrow your way out of debt.
