Financial Firm Accepts Souls As Collateral

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the may-you-be-in-heaven-half-an-hour-before-the-bank-knows-you're-dead. dept.

A financial firm in Latvia is offering 90 day loans with no collateral except your immortal soul. Kontora doesn't require a credit check or proof of employment, only a signed document agreeing that the company owns your soul if you fail to pay and that the soul in question is a "previously unmortgaged property." The loans are also subject to a one-percent-per-day interest rate.

    So... if a lawyer applied for this loan, would he be denied?

    No, because after you can't pay them back, you've essentially signed a contract that allows them to kill you.
