So I can run up a mountain of debt, pay it off for pennies on the dollar and the Rolling Jubilee just refuses to pay it off. I get a bunch of sweet swag for almost nothing?!

Is that how this works?

I take it you're not a big fan of the biblical "Jubilee"?

The difference between what you owe and what you pay might be considered "income" ... you could rack up a substantial tax assessment from the IRS.

Beware ... there's still no free lunch.

I'm a bit dubious of the banks selling you your own bad debt ... they wouldn't like the precedent.
