Once Mr. Beast is named the Debtor's Prison Czar you'll at least have tons of fun during the short remainder of your life!

When they reinstitute debtors prisons next month or whatever nightmare is next, how many people will be going there because they paid with klarna for some doordash.

Very efficient. They can drop off your burritos and repo your car at the same time.

Bundling tranches of restaurant loans- AAA rated (Poke Bowl) down to BB (Subway)

Becoming more and more like Brazil, where you can split your electric utility bill into 21 installments.

Not a good thing, folks!

It's ableist to make fun of me for putting a $45 cold cheeseburger on an installment plan.

Decentralizing the company town is job 1 for these VC econterrorists

On the plus side, Klarna collects through a debt collection firm that doesn’t call you or report on your credit. So you can default on that $30 burrito and unsubscribe from the collections emails.

maybe I shouldn't have invested so heavily in burrito loan CDOs
