Rave on

By Anonymous - This FML is from back in 2009 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, I used the same credit card to apply to college and pay for a rave ticket. My card went through on the rave ticket but denied the college application fee. I guess my credit card is trying to tell me something about my future. FML

I can predict your future. In debt up to your eyeballs, no degree, supporting a wife and kids making less than 20,000 a year. Hope I'm wrong. If not, FYL

Unless the OP is a lesbian and plans to marry a woman and adopt kids together, I'd say your prediction is quite off.

Your credit card told you jack squat. Get your priorities right, genius.

What's all the fuss about his priorities? He didn't choose to not pay the application fee, it sounds like there was an error in the credit card processing which caused it to not go through. I've seen credit card companies refuse a payment because they mistook a legitimate payment for someone attempting fraud on your card, or a scam business making a fake charge. If he maxed out his card, then he needs to work on his financial skills in general, but the ticket wasn't the only purchase that put him at that limit.

But if he'd paid for the important thing first, this wouldn't have happened

#11: Not necessarily. There's a huge difference between the cost of a concert ticket and the cost of college tuition. If the card was about to be maxed out, it would not accept a charge of $20,000+, regardless of whether or not she had already bought the ticket.

Dude, it was an application fee, not a tuition bill. Usually application fees are like 50 bucks - not 20,000. Please read carefully before making a comment, and making yourself look like a real.... well, tool.

But it wasn't a college tuition it was an application fee which is usually around 100 dollars...

what you ordered first will be bought first, you obviously ordered the ticket first so it's your fault.

As #15 posted above, it's an application fee not tuition. Stop being a tool.
