How much debt are you carrying?

[thirdcup]

People owe me money.

That's a new poll. How much is owed to you?

I think it's appropriate to recall some words of The Bard-

Neither a borrower nor a lender be,
For loan oft loses both itself and friend,
And borrowing dulls the edge of husbandry.

It's refreshing to see that the bulk of voters are able to limit their fun to what they can afford, and not bury themselves in debt.
I thought that $25,001 + would be selected perhaps once or twice, but it's in the number 2 spot overall, and in the number 1 spot for those that do carry bad debt. This is shocking to me.
Maybe another poll for these super debtors should be done. How deep are you in? 25-30?, 30-35?, 35-40?....
I'll let someone else do the asking.

The tittle should read "How much bad debt are you carrying?"

Your point is taken. However, in my defense, I opted for the word 'consumer' which I thought would be appropriately clear.

Lesson learned (again)- just because we all speak English does not guarantee we will always understand each other.
