I didn't say ONLY doing that would be enough.

$22k x3 = $10k? Sounds like a backwards ponzi scheme

Come on OP give us some more. You make a bad bet recently? Maybe you thought Madonna would have a nip slip during the halftime show? Been playing some late-night Texas Hold-Em perhaps?

Western Sky Financial [westernsky.com] will give you up to $5k overnight but the APR is over 130% (no shit, look at the terms on that loan - their TV commercial spokesman even says "yes, the money's expensive"). I'm sure there are other places like this that will do similar things if your choice is paying back over 100 times what you owe to these guys or having your kneecaps broken then I guess it's an easy call to make.

If you make the 84 monthly payments of $486.xx or whatever it is to Western Sky you will have paid back something like $40k to borrow that $5k.

Okay 8 times. So these commercials were made for people like me who can't do math. It's a lot okay? Mad

WESTERN SKY FINANCIAL is owned wholly by an individual Tribal Member of the Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe and is not owned or operated by the Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe

Does that even make sense??

Sounds like a Native American owns the company, not the Tribe itself.
