[TimT]

I'm going to be interviewed by him tomorrow.
What topics should I bring up?

Just you or another panel ?

Just you or another panel ?

No idea. Didn't know last time it was a panel either.

reinforce caution, education, and that all deals need to be made in writing, and that we need to pass this onto the current generation.

Also, perhaps an emphasis on how personal credit follows each individual for a long time. It can be valuable when treated carefully.

What topics should I bring up?

IMHO:
Besides the topics others have mentioned:
1) Huge misconception: You can just dispute anything.
2) if you wouldn’t hand over a suitcase of cash, don’t give out your CC
3) stay away from farmers
4) the difference between a secured loan and unsecured

2) if you wouldn’t hand over a suitcase of cash, don’t give out your CC

-1 People made lots of money off the points, and they're only risking their Credit. If they have no plan on buying a house... then it might have been worth the risk. People made $15k every 6 weeks.  I would probably risk my credit for that, if I assumed it would go on for months or years.

Like others have mentioned it’s nearly impossible to earn $15,000 every 6 weeks while risking only one persons credit. That’s $750,000 on a 2% card. Nevertheless, your point stands.

[tov hashem]

what would be the easiest way to secure borrowing a credit card lets say for a legit business to use my cards and to pay it when due on a monthly basis is there anyway to secure the money? (lets say a lean  on property)

[Dan]

1) Huge misconception: You can just dispute anything.

On what basis are you disputing?

[pointer]

On what basis are you disputing?

No, no
That is the misconception he's is referring to, people think you can dispute anything

It's doable

[Dan]

No, no
That is the misconception he's is referring to, people think you can dispute anything 

Gotcha. But on the flip side, I'm hearing too many lawyers on the other side advising against disputing. The trick (b'dieved) is probably figuring out what exactly to dispute.

[Yehuda57]

I'm going to be interviewed by him tomorrow.
What topics should I bring up?

The need for financial literacy education.  (he will eat this up like crazy) This doesn't mean learning math, science or economics, but the basic concepts of budgeting, interest, loans, etc.

The investment misnomer - these were loans at best, most victims probably didn't even think they were doing that.

The halachic ramifications of disputing charges.

People don't have to be willfully trying to scam you, some probably have the best of intentions.

[Dan]

The halachic ramifications of disputing charges.

Namely?

[Dan]

Twerski said he's involved in $50M of these cases.
Which side is he on in which case?
