Furman appears to be owed 16 grand CAN
16674.00 CAN DOLLARS is approximately :


7044.70 BRITISH POUNDS
or
10213.41 EUROS
or
13445.96 US DOLLARS

Which ever way one looks at it, it's a large amount of money for any individual to be owed (and even worse, likely to be written off).

[composite word including 'f*ck'], thats a long list.

Tragic (creators owed) and hilarious (BMW??) at the same time.

Unbeliveable. :eek: I had no idea that it was THAT BAD!

How on earth could this happen..? :(

And Impy, how the h*ll is it possible to owe BMW that much money...? Just a discrete question...

OMG! :eek: I just realise that that's like 320000 swedish crowns!

You poor man... :sad:

Yeah, that's been floating around for a bit. IIRC, their folks actually leant them a load of money to set the business up. They're secured creditors, so they're likely to get priority in being paid off.
Grrr. Argh.

that and it would make Christmas kinda awkward "Here mom, we made you an ashtray and got dad a tie. By the way, thanks for the 141 grand. Could you please pass the stuffing?"

my BMW debt is because I had thiere car for two months, didnt want/afford it - so i gave it back.

I appreciate that the car has depreciated by 2 months, anyhows, my contract states I will pay them the full amount for the car.

so even tho i dont have the car, i have to give them the money for it.

tech - they could write I owe them 1 billion pounds and id have to pay them.

ive been to court and the judge thought it was perfectly fair I gave them £30k for nothing? a bit of paper or somthing - ****.

guess what, ive made sure it appears i have nothing, so they have wasted £1000's in legal bills - think i might phone em up to laugh at em.

Thats business in the good old free market :x Skip merrily from one limited-liability company to the next leaving (potentially) a trail of ruined lives and businesses, get very rich on the back of it, and you don't even loose your high performace sports car!

I often think that I would like to work for myself, but doubt that i have what it takes. But it seems that you don't have to be a good business person to be a sucessful (rich) one.......I might give it a go, whats the worst that can happen? :D
