@ganeshie8 @Gerardo_cast23 @KenLJW Which of the following is an example of secured debt? A. Lawyer fees B. Car loan C. Credit card D. Utility bill

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

which debt you can't get away without paying in time ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

lawyer fees, if u dont pay in time, its okay credit card if u take and use it too much and, dont pay the bill in time, its okay too

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

utility bill comes after uve used it, so u can get away not paying it too

OpenStudy (anteater):

I figured it had to do with collateral. Whether you had something to "secure" the loan. Something that could be taken back and sold to pay off the debt.

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

but Car loan, if u dont pay, bank folks will take ur car away from u - so bank has Car itself as security, when they give u car loan

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

in other words, you dont own the Car (technically) until u payoff all the loan amount.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oo yea

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

So, from bank's perspective, any automobile loans are somewhat SECURE

OpenStudy (anteater):

Which is also why you have to have collision insurance on the car if you take out a loan on it. :)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

^^

OpenStudy (anteater):

But if you are like me, you don't take out a loan ... just buy an old car and drive it until it falls apart. ;)

OpenStudy (anteater):

Have a good evening you guys! :)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

you too :) yup first time buying old car is better... so u can drive like crazy :)
