Firm accepts client’ immortal souls as guarantee for credits

russiatoday.com — You sign a piece of paper and get 80 to 800 US dollars for just that. Only the small print says, for this much easy money you pawn your eternal soul. The document says the loan is given using, as security, “the client’s immaterial being, namely the immortal soul”.

  • paho, on 06/22/2009, -1/+39Good business! They know how to make money in the times of crisis. Those who sell their souls today will have to pay much higher price to buy it back tomorrow.
  • woofers07, on 06/23/2009, -1/+36Simpsons did it. Homer sells his soul to the devil only to have the contract null and void due to the fact he already pledged his soul to Marge.

    1) Pledge soul to someone else
    2) "Sell" soul for $80-800...
    3) Profit

    There is no ????
  • 818digg, on 06/22/2009, -2/+34haha pretty weird, but I think they just use it as a scare tactic in a superstitious part of the world. I'll give them credit for being creative.
  • leontes, on 06/23/2009, -0/+30Wolfram & Hart must be opening up another branch.
  • FervinsUlterius, on 06/23/2009, -0/+26A guy named andy traded me his soul for a joint once. I wrote out a deed to his soul, as a bearer instrument entitling the bearer to possession of his immortal soul, similar to the contract in this story - he signed off on it with his SS# and everything, and signed it over to me, and I gave him a fat joint. About two months later he came over with 5 bucks (the cost of a joint in our neighborhood) to buy the soul back off of me. I would have sold it back, but i had accidentally thrown his soul in the garbage a week before when I was cleaning out my wallet. He was really upset.

    Sorry, Andy.
  • satori3000, on 06/23/2009, -0/+23How is this new, Western banks have been doing this for decades.
  • raustin, on 06/22/2009, -2/+25my soul is worth at least $1,000... c'mon.
  • mbelrose, on 06/23/2009, -1/+21I'd love to see who they use for repo men.
  • copypastry, on 06/23/2009, -0/+19Be careful though, kwik-e-mart doors will no longer open for you.
  • rawnzilla, on 06/23/2009, -0/+18Don't be a pussy, this sounds legit.
  • FmyLife, on 06/23/2009, -0/+15I'll take 800 bucks, I'm not paying em' back. They can keep the damned thing. Pun intended.
  • inactive, on 06/23/2009, -0/+15chocolate egg.
  • onpragu, on 06/23/2009, -0/+14This is more like the situation where Bart sold his soul to Milhouse for five bucks.

    1) Pledge soul to someone else
    2) "Sell" soul....
    3) Profit
    4) Regret it about 23 minutes later after learning the moral of the story
  • IgorUnchained, on 06/23/2009, -1/+12Simpsons did it.

    I was 8 minutes late to the party, but I had forgotten the episode where Homer sells his soul....so it was worth the trip.

    I love the episode where Bart sells his soul to Milhouse.....one of the best.
  • TonyLocNE, on 06/23/2009, -1/+10I think not.
  • CrazyEddie041, on 06/23/2009, -0/+9"Repo" sounds a lot like "reaper"... coincidence?
  • gringer, on 06/23/2009, -1/+10Hell Pizza has been doing that for a while:

  • jcamp08, on 06/23/2009, -0/+9I wonder what they ship it back to you in?
  • Brododium, on 06/23/2009, -0/+8I myself am an investor in Soul Futures, good anticipation before the 2012 Apocalypse.
  • KingGorilla, on 06/23/2009, -0/+8I would've traded them for alf pogs. Remember Alf? He's back! In pog form!
  • viper001, on 06/23/2009, -1/+8When you don't pay up, this happens:

  • rogerhenry, on 06/22/2009, -1/+8That is interesting. I don't know which party is the more crazy. the company or the people who actually use it.
  • waspbr, on 06/23/2009, -0/+6how is this not from the onion?
  • hbyrne, on 06/22/2009, -1/+6There's got to be some serious interest on that.
  • 3oltan, on 06/22/2009, -1/+6Hahaha! Wormling mortals! >:->
  • fredrockbluff, on 06/23/2009, -1/+6*****. i wouldnt have sold my soul to the devil already if i knew i could get straight cash from these guys...
  • insanebrain, on 06/23/2009, -0/+5I don't have a soul. . so where can I sign ?
  • m3arvk, on 06/23/2009, -0/+4Ya let's see ... if I had to put a price on my soul for all eternity I'd say $80-800 is fair.
  • freshgrease, on 06/23/2009, -0/+4You are getting gypped if that person is Atheist.
  • ator1, on 06/23/2009, -0/+4I'm going on vacation with the money I got from Cash4Soul.
  • Calculon, on 06/23/2009, -0/+3How much can I get for my sense of decency?? Everything must go!
  • 55Test55, on 06/23/2009, -0/+3i would feel like ***** if they only gave me $80 for mine. I wonder who's at the lower end of the spectrum and who's at the higher end...and how they decide, lol.
  • Xplorer, on 06/23/2009, -0/+3And still far below the MSRP....
  • CrazyEddie041, on 06/23/2009, -0/+3Sorry, I guess I forgot the sarcasm tags...
  • Hraes, on 06/23/2009, -0/+36th grade, half a basket of curly fries. Never looked back. Those things were delicious.
  • DarkAngelPT, on 06/23/2009, -0/+3Where do I sign????
  • CYCLEORDIE, on 06/23/2009, -0/+3*****! I sold my soul in 8th grade for 3 bucks... I should've held out! I wonder how many times I can legally sell it.. Or if it was even a binding contract because I was a minor..
  • Theuderic, on 06/23/2009, -0/+3Trouble with a pesky soul contract? Daniel Webster and Charlie Daniels, Attorneys at Law, are ready to help!
  • tomasmarc, on 06/23/2009, -0/+2With current economical situation in Latvia, their souls are pretty much the only things they have left...
  • Xplorer, on 06/23/2009, -0/+2Nice to see spammers still have no soul.....
  • forbjok, on 06/23/2009, -0/+2Now you really CAN sell your soul to the devil for money!
  • matude, on 06/23/2009, -0/+2Hmm, doesn't seem like a good business plan if they are located right next to one of the most irreligious countries in the world (Estonia 84%, Sweden 83% etc)
  • HopeForTomorrow, on 06/23/2009, -0/+2So what happens when ginger tries to apply?
  • Suricou, on 06/23/2009, -0/+2Good idea, in a way. It doesn't matter if the soul exists or not - so long as the client believes it to exist, it will function as effective security.
  • Murrabbit, on 06/23/2009, -0/+1Material for the immaterial? Sounds like a good deal to me! Though if this model catches on how will they know if I put my soul up for collateral with multiple firms?
  • frosted, on 06/23/2009, -0/+1It's another SIGN OF THE APOCALYPSE!
  • X9001, on 06/23/2009, -0/+1I am pretty sure you can sell it as many times as you want
  • notmuchlonger, on 06/23/2009, -0/+1Its a sign of the Revelations.
  • inactive, on 06/23/2009, -0/+1This didn't turn out well for Bart.
