An example: for me, I’d happily go into debt to travel, or make sure my son has a good education.
A house
Did that at the end of 2006, and it’s still the single worst decision of my life. If only I waited another year and a half…
Saaaame.
A house, because we were paying rent anyway. My car, it’s paid off now and I couldn’t have made as much $ without it.
But we are up to our eyeballs so it would have to be something incredible. A business with no possibility of failing, maybe.
Euthanasia.
Dare I ask why? That’s an inheritance nightmare.
Why would it? Give away everything else you own, go into debt and die … Seems easy enough
Except you’d be dying with unfinished debt. There is a reason (however misguided) that burial/cremation services post-humously extract money from the possession of the dead. Some cultures are so in debt that this is how debt slavery arises, the next of kin of the deceased must (legally-speaking in their nation, not morally) pay it off with their services. Not to mention debt is one of the (several) reasons why legal systems oppose self-destruction.
That’s probably not the most common system.
I just don’t want to be here, that’s all.
As for inheritance, I’d need to have something to pass on, so this doesn’t count.

If my daughter were to need any medical procedure, I’d take on as much debt as necessary. I don’t give a fuck, I’m getting her fixed no matter what.
Get my hernia fixed. Unfortunately, the surgical theater requires me to pay up front.
I know the world is full of people with similar issues, but I wonder if you’re my best friend 😅 you speak like him, and he also has a hernia needs fixing.
God gives his worst hernias to his kindest polymaths.
A 1way trip to another planet (with survival essentials and at least 20 other people).
Very interesting. Are we to assume this planet could support life?
Not necessarily Earth-like. A lunar or martian outpost would be enough. Enough water, food, and air for 50+ years.
If I didn’t have earthly attachments (child), I’d ask to be part of your 20.
I mean, no matter what anyone is getting out of it, it would be theft if I could never pay it off. In which case I guess I’d go into debt if it meant curing other people of their own debt.
Honorable.
Getting my mom out of debt.
Travel for me too, so we’re currently going into debt traveling. It’s pretty sweet.
Contentment.
