Default WTF is wrong with people?

I just got a repo order on a 2006 34 foot travel trailer. No big deal, but the people owe 51k on it and live in an apartment.

Maybe they were planning on living in the travel trailer.

Depending on where they live it was cheaper to live in an apartment than pay campground fees, and they were so upsidedown on the TT they just gave up.

It's rampant. I read an article today that said there was a poll taken asking the question, "Could you come up with 2k in, say, a week?" You know, for a car repair, or a medical co-payment. Most of the responses were "No". All respondents were making from 110k to 150k per year.

If it weren't for people like this, you would have to go into another line of work, wouldn't you?

Maybe they lost their job(s), had to let the house go into foreclosure and live in an apartment. I didn't know those 2006's sold for that much even when they were new.
