Let's sit back and take a minute to think about really bad ideas. Putting a fork in a toaster, now's that's a bad idea. Going on vacation with the in-laws is another bad idea. Paying 79.9 % interest on a credit card, yep, that's a really bad idea.
Can paying that much be legal or is it Hard Money? Well for your information it is completely legal, and even worse many hard working Americans are actually being forced to pay that much.
Right now a national bank is charging 79.9% on their credit cards, and as long as they fully disclose their terms per the federal Truth in Lending Act, it is completely legal. But in my opinion it is quite shocking that not only a financial institution would try something like this, but also they are getting away with it.
