Obv just about all banks are pretty awful, although none maybe as bad as the US ones that destroyed the market a decade ago. Mostly companies are pretty crap tho, honestly.

What makes them so awful? it targets a teen audience to use the buy now - pay later method, which inevitably leads to terrible debt. and encourages spending past what young people can afford.

NT78 1,230 Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 First of all, she looks amazing. Second, I guess I'm late to the game on Klarna. I just looked into it a bit because I've never heard of it. What's the issue? It's not any worse than a credit card company. No one is being forced to use it. All it does is finance purchases you can't afford, not unlike credit cards. Seems pretty straightforward. If people choose to use that to buy things they can't afford and go into debt, it's their own fault for not living within their means. I mean, credit cards are great...if you use them responsibly. Celebrities endorse "big bank" credit cards all the time and no one attacks them for that. Help me understand how this is different? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klarna is a financial scam! They started advertising with drag queens and they girls got so much slack about it. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/money/consumer-affairs/buy-now-debt-later-lure-klarna-encourages-young-people-spend/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's on them and/or their parents. You can't get mad at every company that targets people to spend more than they should. Personal responsibility comes into play.

The Interest you pay with Klarna is 3 times the interest from regular credit cards. It’s foul. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously people should be responsible and it's ultimately on them, but surprised Gaga would work for a company that thrives off of putting young people in debt.

JazzGa 14,348 Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 This photo rulez. Everything from the Koons bear statue, to the teacup, to the Boss Lady nameplate (reminds me of the L. Gaga nameplate from the ASIB press tour ) are such great references for fans to pick up on. Also the giant finger ring kinda looks like a microphone which is kool God created Adam and Eve, but Gọdga collabed with Brian🎺 and Steve🎷 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even some influencers stop the Klarna posts after their fans said it was such a scam. Woof Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
