Warning: Excessive Use Can Lead To Bankruptcy
Posted on March 01, 2006 by Him and tagged credit, humor
In a recent comment, Emily pointed to her post on Creditbloggers that Australian credit card statements may come with warnings to emphasize the potential financial ruin that they can cause.
There's running a contest to see if you can come up with the funniest warning that you can think of. Leave a comment on their site to enter.
I think that this is a great idea, but I believe it should extend to high-priced luxury goods. Here are some examples:
HDTV
Warning: The correct cables to get the full experience will also set you back $500. And let's face it, you'll probably screw that up anyway.
Ford Mustang
Warning: Driving this car will not make up for your small penis.
Handbags
Warning: Your lipstick does not care how expensive the bag is that you put it in.
Shoes
Warning: The amount of pain your feet will feel wearing these is directly proportional to the price of each shoe.
Starbucks
Warning: This coffee tastes exactly like Dunkin Donuts. Sucker.
Care to add any others?

Fancy Cell Phones like the Razor:
Yea, I can hear you now, just the same on the free phones they give away.
Expensive gym/basketball shoes:
You will never be like Mike.
Haha! I liked the comment about Starbucks and the Ford Mustang. By the way, have you noticed how many old ladies drive Mustangs? What's the deal, are they looking for hot young guys or do they feel it will compensate for their breast size?
Bottled Water
Warning: Tastes the same as tap.
Grillz
Warning: You are not Paul Wall.
Anyway... Good luck w/ the finances!

I love the handbag and shoe warnings! I need to print those out for myself.
Thanks for the CreditBloggers mention. I think we'll get some great entries!
