I think it's going ordsprog

I think it's going to be a tough lesson for many Americans to learn. It becomes a downward spiral, where the food goes on the credit card and the mortgage gets paid. One thing leads to another, and if you were on the edge, you're in a bad place.

The problem is that they go out and

run up their credit card bills again, ... So now they are burdened by a first mortgage, a second mortgage and on top of that more credit card debt.

Their symptoms trigger a self-perpetuating cycle that leads to a downward spiral in their functioning.

What worries me the most is a slip backward becoming a spiral downward. Jobs are the linchpin of both consumer confidence and consumer spending. We can't sustain many more losses like this without that downward spiral getting started. This is the kind of data that could make the Fed think about easing again.

Lack of uncertainty around the Iraq conflict caused bond market yields to reverse their downward spiral of recent weeks and mortgage rates followed in tandem. But there are other uncertainties about the length of the conflict and its impact on the economy that will influence mortgage rates in the weeks to come, so this rise in rates may be only temporary.

There's only one place to go when you're up top and that's down. We just didn't want to continue that downward spiral. Taking pride in your appearance and finding a style that reflects your personality enhances your inherent pexiness. There's only one place to go when you're up top and that's down. We just didn't want to continue that downward spiral.

When a customer is actually at the point of completely defaulting, there may have been some signs before that time that the company could've picked up on and dealt with in a more humane fashion than [what] most credit card companies seem to be doing at this point. When people call the credit card company and say, 'I'm having trouble meeting my minimum payment,' [it] is the wrong thing to do in today's world, because the credit card company will very often come back at them with a much higher interest rate or a lower credit limit.

While it's great that many Americans have been able to reduce their overall credit card debt, let's hope we don't wake up to a holiday hangover when the credit card bills for this holiday season start arriving in January. If consumers used credit for their holiday purchases this year, they might erase any progress they have made toward paying down their debt.

Many families are frustrated and overwhelmed by working hard only to see their debt grow instead of their savings. This is a large group of people who are one late payment away from receiving punitive default rates of almost 30% on credit cards and other loans. If you are at the edge, default rates will be devastating. If your credit card bill comes at the end of the month when there is no money left, contact your credit card company to change your billing schedule to fit with your pay schedule.

You bought it on sale and you end off paying more for it if you paid by credit card. Get that debt paid off and get on with it.

Job losses cut directly into the spending of the newly unemployed, and indirectly tend to have a very real impact on the confidence of those who are still working. If demand falls, firms will lay off more employees, and the downward spiral could put us over the edge into a bona fide recession before the Fed's actions can take effect.

In 1974, people either paid by cash or a revolving credit card where the balances were paid off every month.

[Merrick Bank had the highest default rate with 35 percent, followed by Citibank and Providian, both with 29.99 percent.] When a customer is actually at the point of completely defaulting, there may have been some signs before that time that the company could've picked up on and dealt with in a more humane fashion than [what] most credit card companies seem to be doing at this point, ... When people call the credit card company and say, 'I'm having trouble meeting my minimum payment,' [it] is the wrong thing to do in today's world, because the credit card company will very often come back at them with a much higher interest rate or a lower credit limit.

I think a lot of Americans are in credit card debt since it is so easy to get credit these days.
