So I’m driving back to the office, and along comes one of those ubiquitous re-fi commercials. Normally, I just tune these out, but this one got to me. In the middle of the pitch comes this little gem:
“And credit card companies want even more of your money.”
No, they don’t.
They may want more of their money (back), but that is an altogether different animal. If you have a credit card, and you owe money, it’s because you’ve used their money to buy your dishwasher, or groceries, or mp3 player.
Nothing wrong with that, of course, but don’t believe for a minute that it’s your money.
It’s theirs, on temporary loan to you.
Okay, rant off.
