Affirm CEO: This is the most financially responsible generation

Buy Now, Pay Later services are increasingly popular as Americans rack up record debt and feel the pressure of inflation. Max Levchin, founder and CEO of Affirm, sat down with CNN's Matt Egan to talk about how consumers are increasingly paying for things later.
Americans are increasingly falling behind on their credit card bills and car loans as years of high inflation take their toll. This spike in delinquencies is raising fears about the Buy Now, Pay Later boom. Critics worry these increasingly popular short-term lenders are allowing shoppers to pile on even more debt - at exactly the wrong time.

    ​@@shadowofchaos8932wait....your house 3x'd and its still not worth a brand new F-150 ? Where do you live? My house is worth 9 F-150s and its on .2 acres, it does over look the Florida Bay in one of the nicest and warmest areas in Florida, but still i couldn't build a 500sq ft box for 100k down here. I also will tell y'all, just because a new F-150 is a 100k doesn't mean you have to buy it. Buy a 2010, a 2015, even a 2020 and you will be just as happy. I drive a 2015 Chrysler 300 i paid 14k cash for 4 years ago. I love it, it looks identical to the new one and its dependable.

    Conumer debt is at an all time high. Credit card debt exceeds 1 trillion dollars now. And even with interest rates at an all time high, people are still spending money they dont have, while neglecting sinple things like an emergency fund. This segment was essentially a paid add for Affirm and its bullshit.
