This run-up-the-bills mentality really ticks me off. It reminds me of people who charge up their credit cards knowing they will be declaring bankruptcy and feeling they won’t have to pay the piper in a short time. Thankfully, the laws have changed so this is no longer so prevalent.

I also know a person who, when diagnosed with a life-threatening disease, ran out and bought a new car, plus indulged in a bunch of other luxuries charged onto his credit card. His attitude was, I’ll enjoy life now and someone else can clean up my financial mess after I’m gone.

Then he ended up on life-sustaining medication with his disease in remission and…. had to pay off all of his bills himself. Same thing is happening here with this Brown character. These kind of people deserve their albatross mortgages.
