Bankrate: 7 Deadly Sins That Lead to Debt

Playing on Dante's "Inferno", Bankrate takes a look at the things that lead to debt - the 7 deadly sins. A few of them include:

• Envying the rich and famous. If you're not also rich and famous, trying to emulate the lives of the celebrities you see on tv and read about is a sure way to get yourself into debt.
• Allowing greed to influence your purchases. Many people get trapped by the mindset, "I'm borrowing anyway, why not borrow more?"
• Everyone knows sex sells, so why do we continously allow lust to control our purchases?
