Irish car salesman tells how banks almost made him commit suicide

Like highway men of old, a case of "... your money or your life". Or " ... stand and deliver!" Judging by the photo, I see they took one of his bottom right pre-molars. Gee! How sensitive can these corrupt bankers get? And how obtuse can the compromised politicians who gave them free reign?

What did he do with all the profit he made selling 40 cars a week during the good years?I love the way he blames the banks for his own stupidity and greed.He didn't honor the agreement with the bank.Bet this fecker repossessed cars though.It didn't take much for him to contemplate putting himself first before his family.Anyway he got his sob story out.Simple rule.You're bank manager is NOT your friend.

I love the comparison with the Clergy back in the 70s and 80s and the bankers. Thats exactly right and its high time people realized that those greedy bastards have ruined Ireland forever.

Years ago when my children were little, my husband and I were in his situation. Sometimes you suck it in and settle your affairs: pay off what you can, give up what you have to, make a budget and live on what you can scrape together. But the worst part is coming to grips with reality.

Effin banks the same all over,
