Are you sure it's under $4,000, not under $40,000?

You're right.

His claim is way off. According to the Fed, consumer debt is less than $2.6 trillion.

which on average would make it under $9K per person?

Exactly.

Here is a possibility... He may have meant $20+K of debt per household (based on post #89 by JerseyHighlander...) which could just about make sense, instead of sounding like it was per person?
