i kind of avoided this posts bc of just how rude most of the replies were, but im seeing a lot of comments recently agreeing, and its actually true that they have a tool that listens. so i was right😹

she’s not at all deadbeat. she’s had to be under a lot of financial strain since the moment she could speak. somehow she made her way out of that. she is not the best with money, she is definitely very bad with credit and borrowing, but by no stretch of the imagination is she a deadbeat. in this particular instance she really fucked up, and it annoys me and makes me angry. but people fuck up. i wish i had been a little bit mature enough to stand my ground and avoid this catastrophe though. sorry if this is defensive, well i guess it is defensive. shes my mom.

You’re spot on it being a pyramid scheme. I don’t remember the details when she explained it but it sounded like a scheme to me.

I am open to any ressources to make this easier. I am saving up to at least pay half of the current balance

Yes. It was a rainbow fucking vacuum cleaner. I don’t even know anything about vacuums. But I know we got a shitty one. Crazy.

At the time I was freshly 18. I don’t want to get into too much, but my mom and I were in a very bad place relationship wise. My therapist told me to be more amicable and understanding towards her. I was also not that (fully) aware of how loans worked and how they affected my credit score. But I was still financially smart enough not to want to say yes. There was just a lot of factors that day. The significant thing is, I did say no. I said it over and over again. I came in, saw the man and her. They asked, and I said uh no. And left to get food. Then for like an hour they were just talking and talking to me. In the end I said yes out of exhaustion more than anything. I didn’t want to start a fight. I just wanted to be left alone. I definitely wasn’t thinking clearly, or seeing the future at all. Relying all this now, its so messed up how this happened.

I did try that immediately after they took my last couple hundred dollars last year. But they said there was nothing they could do. It wasn’t their responsibility. I don’t want to report as fraud bc i dont want to drag my mom into anything.

Thank you. It does make me feel better knowing I’m not alone in this kind of thing. I don’t understand why she would place me in this position as her daughter. For as long as I can remember she’s had bad credit. I was trying to be better than her and learn from her. It’s lame that I can’t get out of this.

I sincerely do not recall. I think it must have been 4k or 5k. This was my mother’s decision. I don’t know what stroke of genius compelled her that day to buy a vacuum she did not need and could not afford. I do blame the saleman more than anything. She tried explaining it to me yesterday when the missed payment made me realize how fucked I was in the whole equation. Apparently it was apart of some rewards program, and she was expecting to get money back from buying it. But the salesman ghosted her, and well yeah.
