It’s official, my #studentloan is under $10,0000. 13 years later, never missed a payment, mind you the loan tripled, I’m finally able to see the light. Prayerfully I’ll be done with this ball & chain in a few months. #StudentLoanDebt #Debt #JustSayNoToStudentLoans #StudentLoanReform #LoanSharks
Colored artwork of two loan sharks offering up a briefcase full of cash. Above them it says “Loan Sharks” and below them it says “Pay back on time and we won’t have a problem.”
Oof, sure hope I can make back the money to repay these guys. Don’t want to upset them!

Panel 1: Kitty is sitting on a dock looking out over a pond and flicking a stone into it. Mr. Penguin is walking up behind him. Mr. Penguin: Penny for your thoughts? Kitty: I really messed up. I’m sorry. Panel 2: Mr. Penguin is standing behind Kitty on the dock. Mr. Penguin: We all make mistakes. This wasn’t my first motel. Kitty: What happened? Panel 3: Flashback - a gray shark and a hammerhead shark are beating up a younger Mr. Penguin. Mr. Penguin narrating: Loan sharks happened. It’s a long story… Panel 4: Mr. Penguin is handing Kitty a yellow gift card that says “The Catch” on it. Mr. Penguin: You should take more mind off this. Here’s a gift card to the place up the road. Kitty: Thank you!
We can all learn from the past. Sometimes the past is just a lot more recent.

TRUMP AND VANCE! Evil disgusting, pathetic. Anyone who has one ounce of respect for these two GOONS needs to give their head a shake. This was a set up, a lynching, mob attack. PROPAGANDA. BULLIES.

The #GOPs greatest grift was convincing #working #Americans that our #government is an unaccountable power wielding enormous influence over our daily lives, while convincing us that the most profitable #landlords, #bankers, #Executives, & #LoanSharks in human history were just #SmallBusinesses.
#LoanSharks are targeting the most vulnerable people over the holiday season, with an estimated 300,000 Scots at risk.
#EconomicAbuse & #CoercedDebt can often leave victim-survivors feeling like there is nowhere else to turn to get financial support.
